| Notes | “The research described in this dissertation started as an investigation of the implications of stream network structure on the abundance and distribution of juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and evolved into the development of variables and theory that include stream network relationships. The dissertation is primarily focused on three key goals: the development and application of a theoretical base for analyzing aquatic obligate species that incorporates the underlying structure of the stream network; exploring the importance of stream network variables using multiple spatial scales in an assessment of juvenile coho salmon density; incorporating multiple spatial scales into hierarchical Bayesian models for the adult and juvenile life history stage of coho salmon.”(p.169) |
