TY - BOOK AU - Colin D Levings TI - Ecology of salmonids in estuaries around the world: adaptations, habitats, and conservation SN - 9780774831734 U1 - 597.55 PY - 2016/// CY - Toronto PB - UBC Press KW - Salmonidae Adaptation KW - Salmonidae Habitat KW - Salmonidae Conservation KW - Salmonidae KW - Estuarine Ecology KW - Fishes Estuaries KW - Sciences N2 - "For centuries, biologists have marvelled at how anadromous salmonids--fish that pass from rivers into oceans and back again--survive as they migrate between these two very different environments. Yet, relatively little is understood about what happens to salmonid species (including salmon, steelhead, char, and trout) in the estuaries where they make this transition from fresh to saltwater. This book, written by one of the world's foremost experts on the ecology of salmonids, explains the critical role estuaries play in salmonid survival and recovery."-- ER -
