Large, old Chinook salmon have mostly disappeared from the West Coast. A new 天美影视传媒 and NOAA study points to the recent rise of resident killer whales, and their insatiable appetite for large Chinook salmon, as the main driver behind the decline of the big fish.
A new study released July 1 in Nature Climate Change gives hope for coral reefs. Launched by the nonprofit Coral Reef Alliance, with lead and senior authors at the 天美影视传媒, the study is one of the first to demonstrate that management that takes evolution and adaptation into account can help rescue coral reefs from the effects of climate change.
An ample buffet of freshwater food, brought on by climate change, is altering the life history of one of the world’s most important salmon species.
Chemical signatures imprinted on tiny stones that form inside the ears of fish show that two of Alaska’s most productive salmon populations, and the fisheries they support, depend on the entire watershed.
The largest and oldest Chinook salmon 鈥� fish also known as “kings” and prized for their exceptional size 鈥� have mostly disappeared along the West Coast, according to a new study led by the 天美影视传媒.
A new 天美影视传媒 study finds that one of Alaska’s most abundant freshwater fish species is altering its breeding patterns in response to climate change, which could impact the ecology of northern lakes that already acutely feel the effects of a changing climate.
Fishing communities can survive 鈥� and even thrive 鈥� as fish abundance and market prices shift if they can catch a variety of species and nimbly move from one fishery to the next, a new 天美影视传媒 study finds.
UW scientists will give free talks on climate change for three consecutive Saturdays at Mt. Baker Ski Area.
A chemical signature recorded on the ear bones of Chinook salmon from Alaska’s Bristol Bay region could tell scientists and resource managers where they are born and how they spend their first year of life.
Two 天美影视传媒 professors argue in a Science perspectives article that ecosystem managers must learn to make decisions based on an uncertain future.
Freshwater fish with bellies full of shrews 鈥� one trout a few years back was found to have eaten 19 鈥� aren’t as random as scientists have thought.
