| Title | Influence of Food Resources and Temperature on the Distribution and Energy Balance of Bear Lake Sculpin, Cottus extensus |
| Creator | Wurtsbaugh, Wayne A. Lay, Clyde |
| Description | Changes in the abundance, diet, and daily ration of adult and sub-adult Bear Lake sculpin (Cottus extensus) were investigated seasonally along a littoral to profundal transect in Bear Lake to determine if or when sculpin were food limited. During different seasons, sculpin migrated inshore or offshore. These were most pronounced for age 1 + sculpin, 35-55 mm in length. This age class was most abundant in the littoral zone, particularly in August. The migrations of age two and older sculpin... |
