Behavior and Ecology of Pacific Salmon and Trout - Thomas P. Quinn - Hardcover

Few subjects have generated as much emotional dialogue around conflicting scientific and policy agendas as the protection and management of Pacific salmon resources. In this major new work, Thomas Quinn distills from the vast scientific literature the essential information on the behaviour and ecology of Pacific salmon, including steelhead and cutthroat trout, covering the complete life cycle. Representing the range of species and geographic regions, Quinn includes examples from classic studies of salmon biology and from the most current research to illustrate salmon life history and behaviour as well as the complex physical, biological, and human factors that affect them. This thorough, up-to-date survey should be on the shelf of anyone with a professional or personal interest in Pacific salmon and trout. It will appeal to a wide range of readers, including students, anglers, biologists, conservationists, legislators, and armchair naturalists.Quinn, Thomas P. is the author of 'Behavior and Ecology of Pacific Salmon and Trout - Thomas P.
