Use of habitat heterogeneity in salmonid spawning habitat rehabilitation design
A shortage of salmonid spawning habitat on dammed and regulated rivers has led to the popularity of spawning habitat rehabilitation projects. Habitat heterogeneity is thought to be an important feature of aquatic ecosystems, but specific metrics for design and assessment are lacking. In August 2002, ~ 2,786 metric tons of spawning gravels and 7 large boulders were placed in a 155 meter reach on...
متن کاملHabitat Connectivity of Fish in Temperate Shallow-Water Seascapes
Movements of organisms comprise a fundamental aspect of coastal habitat connectivity. Determining the distribution and co-existence of habitat specialists and generalists in shallow-water seascapes leads to a better understanding of the strength of connectivity-driven community patterns in coastal areas. In this study, unbaited Remote Underwater Video (RUV) systems were used to examine habitat ...
متن کاملSediment budget for salmonid spawning habitat rehabilitation in a regulated river
Bed elevation, feature adjustments, and spawning use were monitored at three Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tschawytscha) spawning habitat rehabilitation sites to measure project longevity in a regulated river. Sites enhanced with 649–1323 m of gravel lost from 3–20% of remaining gravel volume annually during controlled flows of 8–70 m/s and 2.6–4.6% of placed material during a short-duration (19...
متن کاملEffect of Discharge on Daytime Habitat Use and Selection by Muskellunge in the New River, Virginia
—For several fish species, increased river discharge has been linked to behavioral changes, including movement towards particular habitats. From 2000 to 2003, we used radiotelemetry to monitor habitat use by 42 muskellunge Esox masquinongy within a 17-km reach of the New River, Virginia; to evaluate habitat selection; and to determine whether habitat use and selection were affected by discharge...
متن کاملRapid assessment of the riparian zone habitat of river
Some riparian areas of the country are in danger of deterioration due to uncontrolled exploitation coupled with loose implementation of environmental protection policies and regulations. Muleta River, a major watershed in Bukidnon, Philippines, was assessed to determine the present condition of its riparian habitat. Abiotic and biotic conditions of the river were assessed. Other factors includi...
