Fish aquaculture for commodity production, fisheries enhancement and conservation is
expanding rapidly, with many cultured species undergoing inadvertent or controlled …

When cultured Atlantic salmon are released into nature, they compete with wild fish for food,
space, and breeding partners. As a result of morphological, physiological, ecological, and …

Large dam removal is being used to restore river systems, but questions remain regarding
their outcomes. We examine how the removal of two large dams in the Elwha River, coupled …

To investigate the role that estuaries play in the survival of steelhead, Oncorhynchus mykiss,
we compared juvenile size at ocean entry with back-calculated measures of size at ocean …

We monitored growth and life history pathways of juvenile steelhead Oncorhynchus mykiss
and compared growth rates between the upper watershed and estuary in Scott Creek, a …

Adaptation to novel habitats and phenotypic plasticity can be counteracting forces in
evolution, but both are key characteristics of the life history of steelhead/rainbow trout …

Oncorhynchus mykiss exhibit high plasticity in their life history patterns. Individual life history
decisions are hypothesized to result from genetic thresholds shaped by local adaptation …

Generalist predators can contribute to extinction risk of imperiled prey populations even
through incidental predation. Quantifying predation on small populations is important to …

Expression of phenotypic plasticity depends on reaction norms adapted to historic selective
regimes; anthropogenic changes in these selection regimes necessitate contemporary …

We examined the role of individual size and origin (wild versus hatchery) to predation risk
and marine survival for threatened juvenile steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in a coastal …
