  • Diel Horizontal Migration in Streams: Juvenile fish Exploit Spatial Heterogeneity in Thermal and Trophic Resources

Vertical heterogeneity in the physical characteristics of lakes and oceans is ecologically salient and exploited by a wide range of taxa through diel vertical migration to enhance their growth and survival. Whether analogous behaviors exploit horizontal habitat heterogeneity in streams is largely unknown. We investigated fish movement behavior at daily timescales to explore how individuals integrated across spatial variation in food abundance and water temperature. Juvenile coho salmon made feeding forays into cold habitats with abundant food, and then moved long distances (350–1300 m) to warmer habitats that accelerated their metabolism and increased their assimilative capacity. This behavioral thermoregulation enabled fish to mitigate trade-offs between trophic and thermal resources by exploiting thermal heterogeneity. Fish that exploited thermal heterogeneity grew at substantially faster rates than did individuals that assumed other behaviors.

  • Article 1: Salmon Species and Life Cycle
    article 1: Salmon Species and Life Cycle This introductory article provides an overview to salmon species in your watershed and their life cycles (and salmon certainly exhibit a remarkable life cycle). This article provides only a brief introduction to these amazing creatures. Many other websites can provide additional information about salmon. This article is divided into five sections: 1. What salmon species are found in Anchor River, Deep Creek, Ninilchik River, and Stariski Creek systems? 2. What are the stages of a salmon's life cycle? 3. What goes on during each life stage? 4. What goes into creating the habitats needed by each salmon life stage? 5. Some details about the life stages of particular salmon species (in a summary table). What salmon species are found in Anchor River, Deep Creek, Ninilchik River, and Stariski Creek systems? Maybe the first piece of information most landowners want to know is which salmon species use their watershed. Table 1 summarizes that information. Images used to illustrate species are in their “ocean bright” phase. As they travel up freshwater streams towards their spawning grounds, salmon change color and shape. These changes are discussed in Section 3 of this article. Table 1 also provides a general idea of when adult salmon of each species travel upstream to spawn. In this first section, we talk about when adult salmon return to their natal streams to spawn (the streams where their lives began). But juvenile salmon are in the river systems ALL times of year, including mid winter. They're found in many habitats depending on species: main channels, side channels, headwaters, lakes.
