Adult returns to many Atlantic salmon wild and hatchery stocks of the North Atlantic have
declined or collapsed since 1985. Enhancement, commercial fishery closures, and angling …

Migratory prey experience spatially variable predation across their life cycle. They face
unique challenges in navigating this predation landscape, which affects their perception of …

Determining which factors are most effective for mitigative strategies in conservation
management can be difficult for species with complex life cycles. Salmon (Oncorhynchus …

Animal migrations are costly and are often characterized by high predation risk for
individuals. Three of the most oft‐assumed mechanisms for reducing risk for migrants are …

Knowing the species and life stages of prey that predators consume is important for
understanding the impacts that predation may have on prey populations, but traditional …

We assessed the potential role played by two vital Northeastern Pacific Ocean forage fishes,
the Pacific sand lance (Ammodytes personatus) and Pacific herring (Clupea pallasii), as …

Studies describing and hypothesizing the impact of climate change and environmental
processes on vital rates of fish stocks are increasing in frequency, and concomitant with that …

Predation risk for animal migrants can be impacted by physical condition. Although size-or
condition-based selection is often observed, observing infection-based predation is rare due …

Stopover habitats allow migratory animals to bolster energy stores prior to the resumption of
migration, which can increase an individual's likelihood of survival. Carryover effects from …

For over a century, hatchery programs have been used to subsidize natural salmon
populations in order to increase fisheries opportunities and, more recently, to conserve …
