Sockeye salmon smolts were conditioned to distinguish between waters from two natural sockeye nursery systems, Great Central Lake (from which the smolts were obtained) and Cultus Lake. The attractant from each water was volatile, but that from Great Central Lake was the more readily volatilized of the two. Volatile material from Great Central Lake water was collected and shown to evoke a response in the group of fish conditioned to whole Great Central Lake water.

Marine Derived Nutrients

The effects of marine-derived nutrients (MDN) on the productivity of sockeye salmon ( Oncorhynchus nerka ) stocks in Alaska, USA, were examined through nitrogen stable isotope analysis of smolts and mathematical models of the sockeye stock–recruit relationship. Smolt δ15N was used to infer the degree to which smolts depend on MDN for their growth. We found that characteristics of sockeye nursery lakes and watersheds significantly affected the availability of MDN to juvenile sockeye. The magnitude of escapement and water residence time were the most important factors affecting the MDN availability to juvenile salmon. Analysis of stock–recruit models indicated that regional environmental fluctuations had a large effect on stock productivities. However, stock–recruitment data showed little evidence that increasing MDN input to nursery lakes increased stock productivities. Stock–recruitment data may be poorly suited to detection of the influence of MDN because of the multitude of factors that influence juvenile survival in the first several years of their life.

Bio Assay

A laboratory bio-assay, based on the response of adult migrating sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) to homestream water, is described. A characteristic response to the repellent in mammalian skin is discussed. The homestream substance(s) was tentatively identified as volatile, dialyzable, neutral, and heat-labile.The transportation and holding of sockeye in captivity was investigated.

Direct Transfer

The osmoregulatory capability of sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) embryos and fry was tested at weekly intervals by exposing them for 5 days to seawater with a salinity of 29‰. Juveniles that survived the 5-day test were considered to be euryhaline. The fry acquired a salinity tolerance in March 1968 when they were 64 days old and less than 35–40 mm long. The juvenile salmon retained the ability to survive direct transfer to seawater during the 12-month period following March 1968.

Consistent Response

Adult sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) captured during their spawning migration to Great Central Lake, British Columbia, show a consistent response in the laboratory to water taken from the outlet of the lake. The specificity of this response has been confirmed and the responses to water from streams feeding Great Central Lake have been determined. A portion at least of the stimulatory material is volatile and can be retained in a cold trap. Concentration of the active factor has been achieved by a freezing-out technique.

High Yields

Despite evidence of depensatory interactions among year-classes of Adams River sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka), the best management policy is one of equal escapement for all year-classes. We fit alternative models (Ricker model and Larkin model) to 32 yr of stock–recruitment data and checked, using simulation tests, that the significant interaction terms in the Larkin model are not caused by biases in estimating the parameters. We identified a parameter set (Rationalizer model) for which the status quo cyclic escapement policy is optimal, but this set fits the observed data very poorly. Thus it is quite unlikely that the Rationalizer model is correct or that the status quo escapement policy is optimal. Using the fitted stock–recruitment parameters, we simulated the sockeye population under several management policies. The escapement policy optimal under the Ricker model is best overall because of the high yields if it should be correct. If the three stock–recruitment models are equally likely to be correct, the simulations predict that adopting a constant-escapement policy would increase long-term yield 30% over the current policy and that an additional 15% increase in yield could be obtained if the policy were actively adaptive.
