Reveiw of Stock Identification Studies on the Yukon River. The United States/Canada Yukon River Joint Technical Committee by the Subcommittee on Stock Identification

摘要

Managing salmonid populations requires not only information on absolute or relative abundances, but also an understanding of the population structure as well as information on timing and migratory pathways. This second type of information, gathered from a variety of techniques, has been collectively term stock identification, and data for stock identification of salmonid populations from the Yukon River has been gathered for over 30 years.
