Factors Influencing Rainbow Smelt Entrainment Through Oahe Dam, South Dakota
… the entrainment of rainbow smelt through Oahe Dam. Rainbow smelt are an important forage species for walleye and salmonids in Lake Oahe. Loss of rainbow smelt, from Lake Oahe through turbine entrainment could, if of sufficient magnitude, exacerbate variability in smelt population dynamics. …

Behavioral Responses of Rainbow Smelt to Sensory Deterrent Systems
… prey fish for top-level predators in Lake Oahe. Historically, water level management and entrainment losses of rainbow smelt at the Lake Oahe dam have likely contributed to the reduced growth rate of walleye Sander vitreus, chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytschu, as well as other …

Habitat Selection and Movement of Pallid Sturgeon in Lake Sharpe, South Dakota
… ± 0.04 km/hr. Fish located furthest from the dam exhibited higher movement rate, 0.82 ± 0.12 km/hr, than those located near Oahe dam, 0.12 ± 0.08 km/hr. In reservoirs, pallid sturgeon require a variety of habitats. They need areas of high and low velocities that have a corresponding affect on …

Bioenergetics and Life History of Rainbow Smelt in Lake Oahe, South Dakota
Lake Oahe was formed by closure of Oahe Dam on the Missouri River by the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers in August, 1958. The reservoir reached full pool in December of 1967 and extends from Pierre located in North-central South Dakota into the southern third of North Dakota near Bismarck (June 1974). …
