A comparison of sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) in two climate regimes in the north Pacific Ocean using stable carbon and nitrogren isotope ratios
Thesis (M.S.) University of Alaska Fairbanks, 2000 This study explores how the climate shift in the late 1970's impacted sockeye salmon feeding. Stable isotope ratios (¹³C and ¹⁵N) of recent muscle and scale tissues from five mature salmon species are highly correlated (R²=0.96 and 0.91, respec...
