Stable isotopic analysis of four Lake Trout morphotypes in Great Bear lake (NT): Coexistence of multiple trophic generalists.
Published on May 5, 2016
To better understand how resources may be partitioned in a northern system that supports intraspecific diversity of Lake Trout, trophic niches were compared among four shallow-water morphotypes in Great Bear Lake. -
Life history differences between fat and lean lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) morphs in Great Slave Lake, Northwest Territories, Canada.
Published on May 5, 2016
Life history characteristics were compared between fat and lean morphs of lake charr Salvelinus namaycush in Great Slave Lake, Canada, to determine if differences may reflect effects of resource polymorphism. -
Latitudinal variation in growth among Arctic charr in eastern North America: evidence for countergradient variation?
Published on May 5, 2016
Biological data from 66 populations of Arctic charr, Salvelinus alpinus, from eastern North America were analysed to test the applicability of the countergradient hypothesis as an explanation of differences in seasonally adjusted growth rates -
Evolution and origin of sympatric shallow-water morphotypes of Lake Trout, Salvelinus namaycush, in Canada's Great Bear Lake
Published on May 5, 2016
Here, we assess microsatellite and mitochondrial DNA variation among Lake Trout from the five distinct arms of GBL, and also from locations outside of this system to evaluate hypotheses concerning the evolution of morphological variation in this species. -
Influences of environmental variation on anadromous Arctic charr from the Hornaday River, NWT.
Published on May 5, 2016
In this study, associations were found between temporal environmental variation and Arctic charr length- and weight-based growth using data from fish captured in the Hornaday River fishery. -
Fatty acid signatures and stomach contents of four sympatric Lake Trout: assessment of trophic patterns among morphotypes in Great Bear Lake.
Published on May 5, 2016
To investigate diet partitioning as a potential explanatory mechanism for this diversification, we assessed trophic characteristics and relationships among four sympatric shallow‐water morphs of Lake Trout via analyses of fatty acids and stomach contents. -
Polymorphism in Lake Trout in Great Bear Lake: intra-lake morphological diversification at two spatial scales. Biological Journal of Linnean Biology Society
Published on May 5, 2016
This paper focused on geographical patterns of morphological differentiation within lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) to describe two levels of intralake diversification in Great Bear Lake. -
Working with Northern Communities to Build Collaborative Research Partnerships: Perspectives from Early Career Researchers.
Published on May 5, 2016
The growing impetus for local community involvement in northern research result has been efforts to form community-collaborative research programs across disciplines ranging from health and environmental sciences to social sciences. -
Sympatric Polymorphism in Lake Trout: The Coexistence of Multiple Shallow-Water Morphotypes in Great Bear Lake
Published on May 5, 2016
This study examined the polymorphism of Lake Trout inhabiting the shallow-water zones (≤30 m) of Great Bear Lake, Northwest Territories. -
Climate change impacts on freshwater fishes: A Canadian perspective.
Published on May 5, 2016
Here we provide a perspective from the Canadian Aquatic Resources Section on the impacts of climate change to freshwater fishes. -
Genetic Relationships among Smelt, Genus Osmerus
Published on April 11, 2016
The genus OsÂmerus is represented by anadromous and land locked forms in the Pacific, Arctic and Atlantic oceans and their drainages. -
A CONCEPT OF NATURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENT: AN APPLICATION TO UNICORNS
Published on April 11, 2016
Natural resource management is a dynamic, goal-oriented process that functions within a management environment and is guided by a team that represents many disciplines. The management environment is a combination of cultural, economic, political, and e -
Inheritance of microsatellite loci in the polyploid lake sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens)
Published on April 11, 2016
Inheritance in the expression of amplicons for four microsatellite primer pairs was determined using 10 families created from gametes of wild lake sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens) -
The MSU Fenske Fellowship: fresh perspectives on fish, management, and law
Published on April 7, 2016
Professionals from diverse backgrounds must collaborate for the management of fisheries and aquatic ecosystems to be effective. These professionals include researchers, managers, and policymakers. -
ENERGY -- Energy sustainability under the framework of telecoupling
Published on April 5, 2016
Telecouplings widely exist in energy systems with various forms and link energy sustainability of different countries closely, so we proposed some methods for energy sustainability analysis under the framework of telecoupling. -
