  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Trophically transmitted parasites as ecosystem indicators : relationships among parasite community structure, juvenile salmon diet composition, and ocean conditions Author: Losee, James P. Recent research conducted throughout the Northern California Current (NCC) on the ecology of Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) indicates that variable ocean conditions affect the community composition of zooplankton in the nearshore environment which, in turn, can affect the quality of prey for fish, sea birds and mammals. Interannual variability in the quality and composition of the copepod community in the NCC during early marine residency of some Pacific salmon populations is related to survival to adulthood. However, copepods make up a small portion of the diet of coho and Chinook salmon, and the mechanistic linkages between ocean climate, zooplankton composition and salmon prey remain unclear. Parasite analysis provides a supplement to traditional diet analysis that can describe the foraging history of a host species. Coho salmon (O. kisutch) and Chinook salmon (O. tshawytscha) serve as hosts to an array of marine parasites acquired through consumption of infected intermediate hosts such as copepods, euphausiids, and planktivorous fishes. Causing little or no harm to their salmon host, the presence of trophically transmitted parasites provides information on the dietary history of their salmonid host beyond the 24 hours associated with traditional diet analysis. This study (1) examined differences in feeding behavior of coho and Chinook salmon during their early marine residency using both stomach and parasite community analyses and (2) tested the hypothesis that variability in ocean circulation patterns (measured through the Pacific Decadal Oscillation, sea surface temperature (SST) and Bakun's upwelling index) and copepod species composition are related to variability in the community structure of trophically transmitted marine parasites found in juvenile salmon. I compared the abundance and species composition of parasites recovered from juvenile Columbia River coho and upper Columbia River summer and fall Chinook salmon captured off the coast of Washington from 2002 to 2009. I also compared interannual variability in parasite assemblages to physical and biological indices of ocean conditions. Coho and Chinook salmon consumed similar prey taxa; however, the species richness and abundance of trophically transmitted parasites indicated that Chinook salmon consumed a greater diversity and abundance of infected prey. In addition, differences in the abundance of fish in the diet and Anisakis simplex, a parasitic nematode known to infect salmon through fish consumption, suggest that Chinook salmon consistently consumed more fish prey than coho. In contrast, coho appeared to consume more euphausiids as indicated by stomach content analysis and increased abundance of the euphausiid parasite, Rhadinorhynchus trachuri. Shifts in the parasite community composition of both coho and Chinook salmon were related to interannual variability in SST and the biomass of southern-origin copepods (r > 0.7, P < 0.05). The acanthocephalan R. trachuri and a tetraphyllid cestode were associated with "warm" SSTs and greater biomass of lipid-poor, subtropical copepods while the nematode A. simplex was more abundant in years of "cold" SST and a relatively low biomass of subtropical copepods. These results provide novel insight into differences in the diet of Columbia River coho and Chinook salmon and illustrate linkages between ocean climate, zooplankton community composition and salmon diet during early marine residency.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: The effects of single and multiple pathogen and parasite infections on juvenile chinook and coho salmon during early marine residency Author: Sandell, Todd A. Nearly 3000 juvenile Chinook (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) and coho (O. kisutch) salmon captured in nearshore waters off the coasts of Washington and Oregon from 1999-2004 were tested for infection by Renibacterium salmoninarum, Nanophyetus salmincola, and skin metacercariae. First, three quantitative PCR primer/probe sets were compared for detection of R. salmoninarum; amplification of the single copy abc gene was best at detecting medium-high levels of infection and was used in subsequent studies. Parasite infections were detected visually. Infection by N. salmincola was the most common single infection among all juvenile salmon (55.2%), followed by R. salmoninarum (27.5%) and skin metacercariae (16.5%). Infection by R. salmoninarum was highest in 2000, with 54.8% of all juvenile salmon infected, and was much lower in 2004 (<10%). Subyearling (but not yearling) Chinook salmon infected by N. salmincola had significantly reduced growth; skin metacercarial infection was associated with significantly reduced growth only for coho salmon. Infection by R. salmoninarum was associated with significantly reduced growth in yearling Chinook salmon and coho salmon. Multiple infections did not have significantly more severe effects on growth than single infections, although the prevalence of triple infections was very low. The prevalence of R. salmoninarum was significantly and positively correlated with increased survival for both yearling Chinook and coho salmon. To better understand the apparent paradox that higher prevalences correlate with increased survival, we examined the effects of ocean conditions using the summer Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) index as an indicator of good (cold) or bad (warm) ocean condition years. The years 1999-2002 were cold ocean years, and 2003-2004 were warm ocean years. The prevalence of R. salmoninarum was significantly higher in cold years, when ocean conditions were favorable, and more salmon with severe infections were captured; there was no effect of infection on growth. In the summers of warm years, infected yearling Chinook and coho salmon had significantly reduced growth, and the prevalence and severity of R. salmoninarum infections declined. These data indicate that the infection is less detrimental in years with favorable ocean conditions, and suggest that R. salmoninarum infection may be a mechanism linking ocean indices to salmon survival.

Author: Hering, David K. Tidal wetland channels provide rearing habitat for juvenile Chinook salmon as they emigrate from freshwater habitat and prepare to enter the ocean. Widespread diking and drainage of estuarine marshes for agricultural and urban development may have contributed to a decline in salmon abundance in the Pacific Northwest, prompting efforts to restore estuarine salmon habitat in the region. I investigated the growth and residence patterns of age-0 Chinook salmon in two blind tidal channels in the Salmon River estuary, Oregon. One channel drained a natural high salt marsh in “reference” condition, and the other channel was in an adjacent salt marsh, restored to tidal inundation in 1996 after being diked and controlled by a tide gate for thirty five years. Recapture of individually marked fish indicated salmon growth rates were similar in the two channels, though growth rates varied more seasonally in the restored site. Average minimum residence times of individual fish were approximately ten days in each channel, and individual salmon were observed up to 79 and 117 days after initial marking in the reference and restored channels, respectively. To characterize movement of age-0 salmon within tidal channels, I tested the feasibility of stationary Passive Integrated Transponder (PIT) detection within a small (approximately 8m wide) tidal channel within the natural marsh system. I found that a stationary PIT detector was an effective tool for monitoring tagged fish movement in a brackish water channel network. Salmon movements in the channel were asymmetrical about high slack tide, with peak movement frequency occurring late during both flood and ebb tide periods. Most movements were in the direction of tidal currents, but 20% of individuals entered the channel against the ebbing tide. Individuals occupied the intertidal channel for a median 4.9 hours and as long as 8.9 hours per tidal cycle, and few were detected moving when water depth was <0.4m. Some individuals used the channel on multiple successive tidal cycles, and others entered intermittently over periods up to 109 days. This research used individual-based fish marking methods to quantify juvenile Chinook salmon behavior and performance within tidal marsh channels, assessing functional equivalence of natural and restored sites and demonstrating the value of such habitats for conservation and restoration of salmon populations.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Influences of kraft mill effluents on the production of chinook salmon in laboratory stream communities Author: Lichatowich, James August A study of the effects of stabilized and unstabilized kraft mill effluents on the production of chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in six laboratory streams was conducted at the Pacific Cooperative Water Pollution Laboratories, Oregon State University-from May through August, 1969. Similar salmon biomasses were stocked in each stream. Changes in salmon biomass were measured every 14 days. Streams receiving 1.5 percent by volume of unstabilized waste (3 mg/1 BOD) and 0.75 percent by volume of unstabilized waste (1.5 mg/1 BOD) maintained the highest biomasses of salmon. The stream receiving 7.5 percent by volume of stabilized waste (1.5 mg/1 BOD) maintained a salmon biomass slightly higher than the control streams, and the stream receiving 1.5 percent by volume of stabilized effluent (0.3 mg/1 BOD) produced a salmon biomass about the same as those of the control streams. The growth rates of the salmon in the laboratory streams were directly related to the biomass of their food organisms. The density of invertebrate organisms, however, was not clearly related to the density of organic matter. Organic matter may have provided hiding places for invertebrates and affected their availability to the salmon. Feeding of the invertebrates on bacteria or detritus associated with the effluent could also have obscured relationships between invertebrate and organic matter densities. Acute toxicity bioassays of unstabilized wastes showed these effluents were more toxic in winter and spring than in summer. The more toxic effluent may have had a direct deleterious effect on the growth of salmon during seasons other than summer. Lower levels of toxicity probably minimized any direct effect of this effluent on fish growth during the summer and may have permitted increased invertebrate production. This perhaps explains the higher levels of salmon production obtained during this experiment as compared to those obtained in earlier experiments conducted by others during seasons other than summer.

  Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Influence of biologically stabilized kraft mill effluent on the food relations and production of juvenile chinook salmon in laboratory streams Author: Seim, W. K. (Wayne K.) This thesis reports the results of a study on the influence of biologically stabilized kraft mill effluent (SKME) on the food relations and production of juvenile chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tschawytscha (Walbaum), in laboratory streams. Experiments were conducted at the Oak Creek Fisheries Research Laboratory, Oregon State University, during 1967 and 1968. Kraft mill effluent used in this study was either collected raw and biologically stabilized at the laboratory, or collected already treated from a mill operating a stabilization pond. Stabilization of wastes was accomplished at the laboratory by sewage bacteria under constant aeration and with the addition of nitrogen and phosphorus. One aspect of this study dealt with the relationship between salmon production and salmon biomass in streams stocked with salmon at different densities in three control and three streams receiving 1.5 percent SKME by volume. This design permitted an analysis of the relationships between the abundance of the food organisms and the growth rate and biomass of salmon. Another aspect of the study dealt with the production of fish stocked at similar densities in two control streams and four streams each of which received a different concentration of SKME. In experiments conducted during the spring and fall periods, salmon production was lower in streams receiving a 1.5 percent SKME concentration than in control streams. This difference was attributed to a direct effect of SKME since no reduction in the abundance of food organisms or in the basic capacity of the streams to produce food organisms could be demonstrated. In experiments during the summer salmon production was found to be greater in streams receiving up to 4.0 percent SKME than in control streams. Salmon production was greatest at a 1.0 percent concentration and declined at concentrations of 2.0 and 4.0 percent SKME. The increase in production can probably be attributed to an increase in the numerical density of the major food organism, an amphipod identified as Crangonyx sp. The decline in salmon production at concentrations above 1.0 percent suggested that SKME was directly effecting salmon growth rates during summer experiments also, although this influence may have been small in relation to beneficial effects on food abundance. Amphipod biomass was related to the biomass of organic material in the laboratory streams.
