Trophic Level Changes and Alewife Predation on Conesus Lake
… The introduction of an obligate planktivore, the alewife, in the late 1970's resulted in a rapidly expanding planktivore population and poorer water quality. Attempts at biomanipulation were begun in 1985 with yearly stockings of 65,000 3-5 cm walleye fingerlings. While these fingerling plantings …

Trophic ecology of an introduced, land-locked alewife (Alosa pseudoharengus) population and assessment of alewife impact on resident sportfish and crustacean zooplankton communities in Claytor Lake, Virginia
… population ecology of an introduced (1968- 1969) alewife forage base and resident sportfishes (age 0 and older) indicated several negative trophic interactions within the community complex of Claytor Lake, Virginia. Alewife piscivority represents a potentially significant adverse impact on …

Effects of landlocked alewife introduction on white bass and walleye populations, Claytor Lake, Virginia
The effects of the landlocked alewife introduction on the white bass and walleye populations were evaluated. Only white bass in age classes III and IV clearly exhibited an increase in total length following the introduction of landlocked alewives. Age and growth analysis for walleye, white bass, …

Reproduction and early life history of a landlocked population of alewife (Alosa pseudoharencus) in Claytor Lake, Virginia
… age I to 37,147 eggs at age III. The majority of alewife spawning was concentrated in littoral areas of a large embayment. Spawning period was protracted (13 weeks), beginning in May and lasting until August. Females apparently did not extrude eggs at one time, but spawned repeatedly. Growth rates …

Analysis of the Trophic Support Capacity of Smith Mountain Lake, Virginia, for Piscivorous Fish
… or the maximum sustainable supply, of alewife (Alosa pseudoharengus) and gizzard shad (Dorosoma cepedianum) were determined using data on the biomass, growth, and mortality of each species. Mean hydroacoustic alewife biomass from 1993-1998 was 37 kg/ha and mean gizzard shad cove …

Interpreting Predator – Prey Interactions in Cayuga Lake Fishes Using Fatty Acid Signature Analysis
… compared to two major prey species in the lake; alewife (Alosa pseudoharengus) and round goby (Neogobius melanostomus). The main objectives of the study were to assess FAS dissimilarity between prey species and then compare each prey FAS to lake trout FAS. Fish were collected in 2014 and 2015 …

Compatibility and complementarity of alewife (Alosa pseudoharengus) and gizzard shad (Dorosoma cepedianum) as forage fish in Smith Mountain Lake, Virginia
The attributes of alewife and gizzard shad as coexistent forage fishes for striped bass (Morone saxatilis), walleye (Stizostedion vitreum vitreum) and largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) were evaluated in Smith Mountain Lake, an 8,337 ha hydroelectric impoundment in south-central Virginia. …

Trophic interactions between larval gizzard shad and resident zooplanktivores in Claytor Lake, Virginia
… with both larval Lepomis spp. and larval alewife Alosa pseudoharengus. Peak larval shad density (0.04-0.06 fish/m3) was two to three orders of magnitude less than that reported from other reservoir systems, slightly less than that of larval alewife in Claytor Lake (0.05-0.07 fish/m3), and …

Intermediacy : extracting vitality from intersecting borderlines
… an area. The study of an intermediate area, Alewife in Cambridge, Massachusetts, through range of scales and means, from diagrammatic mapping to observation of the site, gives understanding of what makes Alewife as it is now. The conceptual vocabularies assigned to conditions of the site shed …

Acoustic scattering by axisymmertic finite-length bodies with application to fish : measurement and modeling
… measurements has been conducted involving alewife fish (Alosa pseudoharengus), which are morphologically similar to the Atlantic herring (Clupea harengus). A greater-than-octave bandwidth (40-95 kHz), shaped, linearly swept, frequency modulated signal was used to insonify live, adult …

Diet Analysis of Burbot from Eastern Lake Michigan: 1999-2012
… contribution of sculpin (<em>Cottus</em>), alewife (<em>Alosa pseudoharengus</em>), and ninespine stickleback (<em>Pungitius pungitius</em>) to burbot diet decreased from ~80% before 2006 to ~15% in 2012. During the same time span, round goby (<em>Neogobius melanostomus</em>) contribution to …

Spatiotemporal trends and relationships in the abundance, growth, and condition of common nearshore fishes of southwest Lake Michigan
… the round goby, an invasive omnivore; and the alewife, an invasive planktivore. The objective of this research was to explore spatiotemporal patterns in the abundance of fishes in the nearshore area of the Illinois waters of Lake Michigan as well as to assess the growth and condition of two of …

Habitat relationships for alewives and blueback herring in a Virginia stream
… characteristics and stream use by spawning alewife (Alosa pseudoharengus) and blueback herring (Alosa aestivalis) in the Rappahannock River drainage were identified. Trends in fish use of 72 tributaries were determined by consulting eighty-eight people from the Rappahannock River area …
