Title | Variation in condition of rainbow trout in relation to food, temperature, and individual length in the Green River Utah |
Creator | Filbert, R. B. Hawkins, Charles P. |
Description | We examined how condition (weight at length) of rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss varied in relation to availability of drifting invertebrates and temperature at two locations over four seasons in the Green River, Utah. Food availability (daytime drift density) varied more than 17-fold across sites and seasons, and rainbow trout experienced an 11°C range in mean monthly temperature. Both rainbow trout gut fullness and condition increased as joint, nonlinear functions of increasing food... |
