Stock Structure and Environmental Effects on Year
Class Formation and Population Trends of Pacific Herring (Clupea
pallasi) in Prince William Sound, Alaska |
|
The stock structure, population-level climate
effects and recruitment were modeled for Pacific herring (Clupea
pallasi) in Prince William Sound, Alaska.
Metapopulation theory best represented stock structure, herring abundance
correlated with long-term climate trends and environmental recruitment models
reflecting stock structure provided best fits. A new theory concerning
recruitment was presented. Major Professor: Dr. Brenda L. Norcross |

Alternative Sampling and Estimation Methods for
Multispecies Trawl Surveys |
|
Multispecies trawl surveys are used to estimate fish
species° abundance, but their effectiveness is often limited by large
coefficients of variation (CVs). In this study, stratification and
poststratification by habitat and fish density decreased CVs, as did
incorporating abundance trends over years with mixed model, empirical Bayes
or hierarchical Bayes methods. Major Professor: Dr. Brenda L. Norcross |

Decadel Variability in the Arctic Ocean-Greenland-Iceland-Norwegian Seas Ice-Ocean-Atmosphere Climate System |
|
A mechanism of decadal variability in the Arctic
Ocean-Greenland-Iceland-Norwegian seas ice-ocean-atmosphere system was
investigated. It is hypothesized that the observed arctic variability is
regulated by heat and freshwater exchange between the basins. The conceptual
mechanism of the arctic decadal variability has been reproduced in a model
experiment. Major Professor: Dr. Mark Johnson |

Gulf of Alaska Pacific Ocean Perch: Stock
Assessment, Survey Design and Sampling |
|
The Pacific Ocean perch is an important commercial
rockfish species in Alaska. Estimates of their abundance are highly imprecise
because of their patchy distribution. This thesis explores the current stock
assessment of the species and develops methods of improving their assessment,
including survey and sampling design enhancement. Major Professor: Dr.

Investigations of the Role of Lipids in Marine
Mammal Diets, Health and Ecology |
|
The amount, type and flux of blubber and blood
lipids in marine mammals under natural and controlled dietary conditions were
investigated. Factors that influence the quantity and quality of blubber in
bowhead whales were examined to establish health indices. Fatty acid profiles
were used to chemically trace diet in harbor seals. Major Professor: Dr.

Primary Production and Nutrient Dynamics of the
Southeastern Bering Sea Shelf |
|
This research is the first to describe the
inhibition of phytoplankton utilization of nitrate by high ammonium
concentrations that are prevalent over large areas of the Bering Sea shelf.
Comparison with previous data indicates that total primary production over
the middle shelf has not changed markedly over the past 20 years. Low
concentrations of iron may slightly suppress the primary productivity rates
in the open Bering Sea. Major Professor: Dr. Terry Whitledge |

Utilizing Multi-Source Abundance Estimation and
Climate Variability to Forecast Pacific Salmon Populations |
|
A modeling framework for combining many different
sources of information to estimate total spawners and recruits for Pacific
salmon in data-limited situations was developed. These results allowed an
exploration of the influence of environmental change to understand current
trends in salmon returns and improve the reliability of forecasts. Major
