Similar Incidence

Among 159 central British Columbia pink salmon that had been marked by removal of two fins as fry and had been recovered in commercial fisheries after one winter in the sea, the scales of about one-third showed a supplementary or "false" check near the centre of the scale, in addition to the single clear-cut annulus. This evidence from fish of known age confirms the prevailing opinion that such extra checks do not represent annuli, hence that the fish bearing them are in their second year of life rather than their third. Unmarked pink salmon from the same area, and some from southern British Columbia, had a generally similar incidence of supplementary checks. In both marked and unmarked fish the supplementary checks varied in distinctness from faint to quite clear. In a sample of scales of 14 double-fin marked chum salmon which were known to be in their 4th year, all fish had the expected 3 annuli, and 12 fish had a supplementary check inside the first annulus.

Salmon Fishery

There are two main areas of pacific salmon fishing in the Magadan region: Shelikhova Gulf and Tauiskaya Bay. The main fishing species is pink salmon in the region. Its share of total salmon catch by odd-year returns reaches 85 %. Data on the dynamics of escapement to the spawning grounds of pink salmon of the Shelikhova Gulf and Tauiskaya Bay are presented. The displacement of the level of spawning returns of pink salmon into the Shelihova Gulf with the simultaneous reduction of its returns to the Tauiskaya Bay is shown. Data on the dynamics of the fishing indicators of pink salmon for the two main fishing areas are provided. The Tauiskaya Bay as the main pink salmon fishery area loses its importance is shown. Graphical data on the escapement of producers pink salmon to the spawning grounds are presented and the optimal values of spawning escapements are estimated. Chum salmon is the second largest and most fishing species. Information on the dynamics of the number of returns, catch and escapement to the spawning grounds of chum salmon is given. The indicators of escapement to the spawning areas and their compliance with the optimal passes of salmon producers are analyzed. The issues of the dynamics of returns number, catch and the escapement to the spawning grounds of coho salmon producers are considered. The level of the escapement to the spawning areas is shown and the ratio of actual to optimal values of passes is estimated. The role of coho salmon as an object of industrial fishing and amateur fishing is shown. The extent of fishing press on individual groups of salmon populations is discussed. It is concluded that it is necessary to remove the main salmon fishery from the Tauiskaya Bay to the Shelikhova Gulf.

Maturation Age

Different stock dynamics result from genetic and nongenetic mechanisms of determination of maturation age of chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) in a model of interacting pink (O. gorbuscha) and chum salmon stocks. When the model is disturbed from equilibrium by low survival in one pink salmon line, the genetic mechanism (high heritability of maturation age) leads to biennial cycles of numbers of even-aged chums and of numbers of pinks, similar to observed cycles. The nongenetic mechanism (zero heritability of maturation age) results in a new equlibrium at which neither stock cycles. When one pink salmon line is completely removed the genetic mechanism leads to biennial cycles of abundance of even-aged chums; the nongenetic mechanism does not lead to such cycles. These effects persist at intermediate values of heritability of maturation age and in spite of stochastic variability. The model is an adaptation of the Ricker curve to two interacting stocks, the recruitment for each depending on the density of both.

Changing Light

When given a choice between light and dark areas, schools of chum or pink salmon fry remain in the light, sockeye fry prefer the dark and coho fry show no marked preference for either. Newly emerged sockeye fry are the most strongly photonegative, remaining mostly under stones. Older sockeye fry move more into the light. Sockeye and coho smolts stay in the dark more than sockeye and coho underyearlings. Territorial and "escape" behaviour by fish in the experimental apparatus may obscure these reactions to light. Soon after emerging from the gravel, pink fry swim near the surface under low light intensity and retreat to deeper water in brighter light. Older pink fry seem indifferent to changing light. Recently emerged chum salmon fry do not respond in this way to changing illumination, although older fry tend to swim closer to the surface. This difference between pink and chum salmon fry may be related to differences in schooling behaviour and alarm responses of the two species.

Stomachs of pink, chum, sockeye, and coho salmon and steelhead trout caught during the summer of 1958 in gillnets fished overnight in the northeastern Pacific Ocean contained mainly zooplankton (Limacina, amphipods, copepods, and euphausiids), squid, and fish. Except for sockeye, there were no differences in contents related to fish size or state of maturity. Differences were found between species in the kinds of stomach contents present. The predominant organisms were amphipods and fish in pink salmon, crustaceans in immature sockeye, euphausiids and squid in maturing sockeye, euphausiids, fish, and squid in coho, and fish and squid in steelhead stomachs. The stomach contents of chum salmon were notable in that most of their contents were too well digested to identify. Comparison with the findings of workers in the northwestern Pacific showed no significant differences in the kinds of stomach contents, however, a greater amount of material was present in the stomachs they examined. The contents of stomachs from fish taken in various ocean domains were compared. Greater differences were noted in the stomach contents of fish from different domains than from different species. It is suggested that feeding is associated more with availability rather than with preferences for specific organisms.

Long Distance

The spawning ground of chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) is usually located farther downriver than that of masu salmon (Oncorhynchus masou) in Hokkaido, Japan. To compare the swimming abilities of these two species, the relationship between swimming speed and oxygen consumption was compared using a swim tunnel in the laboratory. Then, the upstream-migration behaviors of chum salmon and masu salmon were compared using electromyogram telemetry at fish passages in the Toyohira River, Hokkaido. In the laboratory study, the standard metabolic rate of masu salmon was lower and the critical swimming speed (Ucrit) was faster than those of chum salmon. In the field study, the holding time needed to recover the swimming performance exceeding Ucrit at the fish passages and the trial number needed to pass the fish passages were significantly lower for masu salmon than chum salmon. These results revealed that masu salmon are more adaptable to extended swimming in high water velocity conditions than chum salmon and that masu salmon are better equipped for a long distance upstream migration to their spawning ground than chum salmon.
