Synopsis

This book takes a unique look at the ecology of one of the world's most productive ecosystems: the Naknek River system of Bristol Bay, Alaska. The author provides a comprehensive analysis of the system, from its physical aspects and productivity of lakes to the abundance of juvenile sockeye salmon and associated species. The author also explores factors that appear to be limiting production of juvenile sockeye salmon in the system, and suggests several management procedures that might significantly increase the production of smolts, ultimately increasing the yield of adult sockeye salmon to the fishery. This book will be of interest to fisheries scientists, ecologists, and natural resource managers. It provides a wealth of information on the Naknek River system and its sockeye salmon population, and offers valuable insights into the management of this important fishery resource.
