@article {55371, title = {Fate and behavior of rotenone in Diamond Lake, Oregon, USA following invasive tui chub eradication}, journal = {Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry}, volume = {33 }, number = {7}, year = {2014}, note = {Diamond Lake experienced an invasion of tui chub in the 1940s, which eventually forced the Oregon State Game Commission to kill all the fish in the lake in 1954 by applying rotenone. By 1992, the tui chub was back, probably due to being used as live bait. The reintroduction of the invader damaged water quality, killed aquatic invertebrates, and caused toxic blooms of cyanobacteria. By 2006, another rotenone fish-kill was planned. This time, the EPA required monitoring to make sure neither rotenone nor rotenolone, a compound produced by the breakdown of rotenone, were introduced in harmful amounts into nearby wells or streams. This article discusses the rotenone treatment, its monitoring and makes recommendations for future managers facing this situation.}, pages = {p. 1650{\textendash}1655}, keywords = {Diamond Lake, invasive species, natural resource management, pesticides, Rainbow trout = Oncorhynchus mykiss, Tui chub = Gila bicolor, Umpqua River Basin, water pollution}, doi = {10.1002/etc.2608}, author = {Finlayson, Brian J. and Eilers, Joseph M. and Huchko, Holly A.} } @article {36186, title = {Timing of population fragmentation in a vulnerable minnow, the Umpqua chub, and the role of nonnative predators}, journal = {Transactions of the American Fisheries Society}, volume = {14}, number = {2}, year = {2013}, note = {This is a study of the effects of population fragmentation on the genetic diversity of the Umpqua chub, a sensitive-threatened native species in Oregon.}, month = {2013, Mar.}, pages = {p.447-457}, keywords = {Calapooya Creek, Cow Creek, depleted populations, Elk Creek, genetics, invasive species, Olalla Creek, population biology, Smallmouth Bass = Micropterus dolomieu, Smith River, South Umpqua River, Umpqua chub = Oregonichthys kalawatseti, Umpqua River}, doi = {10.1080/00028487.2012.728166}, author = {O{\textquoteright}Malley, Kathleen G. and Markle, Douglas F. and Ardren, William R.} } @article {36076, title = {American shad of the Pacific Coast: a harmful invasive species or benign introduction?}, journal = {Fisheries}, volume = {37}, number = {3}, year = {2012}, note = {Examines the roles played by the invasive species American shad in the ecosystems of the Pacific Northwest and calls for more research.}, month = {2012, Mar.}, pages = {p.115-122}, keywords = {climate, Columbia River, Coos River, Coquille River, dams, ecosystem health, food availability, habitats, invasive species, life history information, Pacific salmonids = Oncorhynchus spp., parasites, Shad = Alosa sapidissima, Siuslaw River, Smith River, Umpqua River, water temperature}, doi = {10.1080/03632415.2012.659941}, author = {Hasselman, Daniel J. and Hinrichsen, Richard A. and Shields, Barbara A. and Ebbesmeyer, Curtis C.} } @article {36071, title = {The rapid establishment, dispersal, and increased abundance of invasive American shad in the Pacific}, journal = {Fisheries}, volume = {37}, number = {3}, year = {2012}, note = {Gives the history of the introduction of the invasive species American shad into the waters of the Pacific Northwest, and some of the reasons for the successful invasion.}, month = {2012, Mar.}, pages = {p.103-114}, keywords = {climate, Columbia River, Coos River, Coquille River, dams, habitats, history, invasive species, life history information, Shad = Alosa sapidissima, Siuslaw River, Smith River, Umpqua River, water temperature}, doi = {10.1080/03632415.2012.659938}, author = {Hasselman, Daniel J. and Hinrichsen, Richard A. and Shields, Barbara A. and Ebbesmeyer, Curtis C.} } @article {26781, title = {Early Detection of a New Invasive Mesogastropod, Assiminea parasitologica, in Pacific Northwest Estuaries}, year = {2010}, note = {"Assiminea parasitologica is a small intertidal estuarine mesogastropod snail native to Japan.

We trapped one adult male green crab at Pony Point in Coos Bay on October 26, 1997. This crab measured 86.5 mm in carapace width and represents the largest specimen so far collected in Oregon. All the green crabs retrieved in Coos Bay have been large adults between 58 and 86 mm. We searched gravel substrates below boulders and algal blades, but never recovered any young-of the-year-green crabs in Coos, Winchester, Yaquina or Siletz Bays. These findings suggest that one year class (perhaps 1995) established itself in Coos Bay, but at present is not abundant enough to perpetuate itself.{\textquotedblright} (from the Abstract)}, institution = {Oregon State University}, address = {Corvallis, Or.}, keywords = {algae, aquatic invertebrates, Charleston (OR.), Coos Bay, Craigie Point, Criteser{\textquoteright}s Moorage, crustaceans, European green crab = Carcinus maenas, Fucus spp., Georgia-Pacific, Hatfield Marine Science Center, Hinton Point, Idaho Point, invasive species, molluscs, Oregon Oyster Farm, Oregon shore crab = Hemigrapsus oregonensis, Pony Point, Purple shore crab = Hemigrapsus nudus, River Bend, salinity, Sawyer{\textquoteright}s Landing, Schooner Creek, Siletz Bay, spatial distribution, species list, Umpqua River estuary, Umpqua River finger jetty, Umpqua triangle, Winchester Bay, Yaquina Bay south jetty}, url = {https://ir.library.oregonstate.edu/concern/defaults/xg94hv61v}, author = {Angel, Tiah and Bassett, Zasha and Chipman, Brian and Cleveland, Kimberly and Cronick, Tamisha and Ehlig, Janette and Frerich, Dan and Hunt, Chris and Ison, Todd and McGuire, Angela and Oliver, Jennifer and Schmelter, Anja and Whitsett, Jennifer} }
