Title | Effects of Biotic and Abiotic Factors on the Distribution of Trout and Salmon Along a Longitudinal Stream Gradient |
Creator | de la Hoz Franco, E. A. Budy, Phaedra E. |
Description | We examined the influence of biotic and abiotic factors on the distribution, abundance, and condition of salmonid fishes along a stream gradient. We observed a longitudinal change in fish distribution with native cutthroat trout, Oncorhynchus clarki utah, and introduced brown trout, Salmo trutta, demonstrating a distinct pattern of allopatry. Cutthroat trout dominated high elevation reaches, while reaches at lower elevations were dominated by brown trout. A transition zone between these... |
