Implications Of Channel Catfish Movement In An Internationally Managed System, Henry Hansen
Implications Of Channel Catfish Movement In An Internationally Managed System, Henry Hansen
School of Natural Resources: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research
The large-scale movements and spatial behavior of channel catfish in the Red River of the North, have direct interactions with geopolitics, anthropogenic structures, and ecosystems. Investigating the spatial dynamics and exploitation of this mobile and internationally managed fish species provides opportunities for resource managers to design evidence-based policy for the diverse interest groups that utilize the fishery. My thesis comprised two parts: 1) characterize systemwide movement and survival patterns using mark-recapture methods and acoustic telemetry and 2) project the interaction of hypothetical exploitation scenarios and alternative movement methodologies to assess the fishery from an ecosystem service flow perspective. Channel catfish …

River Otter (Lontra Canadensis) Home Range, Habitat Use, Overnight Movement, And Survival In The Platte River Of Nebraska, Samuel P. Wilson
School of Natural Resources: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research
River otters (Lontra canadensis) are native to Nebraska but were extirpated by the early 1900s. The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission (NGPC) reintroduced river otters during 1986–1991 to restore the species in the state but little is known regarding the habitat needs and status of this high profile threatened species. To provide information for management I conducted research to determine home range, habitat use, overnight movement distance, and annual survival of river otters in the central Platte River of Nebraska.
I trapped, implanted telemetry transmitters, and tracked 18 river otters during 2006–2009. I obtained 996 locations and constructed …
