North Pacific Anadromous Fish Commission, 889 Pender Street, Vancouver, Canada. A time series of scale samples (1956 – 2002) collected from adult sockeye salmon returning to Ugashik River were retrieved from the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. These scales were digitized, revealing growth information for the freshwater and marine life history stages of sockeye salmon. The growth information will be related to time series of sockeye salmon production to Bristol Bay and oceanographic conditions within the Bering Sea and North Pacific Ocean. This dataset contains data on sockeye salmon growth derived from scale analysis. 1956 2002 ground condition Complete Not planned Ugashik River system in Bristol Bay, Alaska -157.738283 -157.00945 57.659567 57.303217 ISO 19115 Topic Categories Biota 002 None Sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka age growth scale Geographic Names Information System Alaska Ugashik River Bristol Bay None collection single species vertebrates Empire Biovitae Carbon-based lifeforms Kingdom Animalia Phylum Chordata Subphylum Vertebrata Superclass Osteichthyes Class Actinopterygii Subclass Neopterygii Infraclass Teleostei Superorder Protacanthopterygii Order Salmoniformes Family Salmonidae Subfamily Salmoninae Genus Oncorhynchus Species Oncorhynchus nerka sockeye salmon Contact the Point of Contact for access constraints if none are provided.
