Individual point estimates of stream density by juvenile salmonid species in two small tributaries to the Salmon River, Lake Ontario, New York were recorded. Enumeration of salmonid species was observed using a backpack electrofisher in order to identify fish species. Stream density estimates were calculated using stream width measurements taken at equally spaced transects. Comparisons of species densities between the two streams were analyzed to infer competition or segregation.
Cisco and Bloater growth data from hatchery reared fish were collected in association with a project to repopulate Lake Ontario native prey species. Fish were grown and measured under hatchery conditions for up to nine months before being released into Lake Ontario. Weekly measurements of total length, total weight, and morphometrics were recorded for both species to determine growth during their first year of growth for eight separate year-classes, 2012-2019.
In association with a project to estimate stream habitat use by two fish species; habitat parameters where slimy sculpin and rainbow trout were captured were recorded. Habitat use was observed using a backpack electrofisher in order to determine where fish were residing. Total stream habitat was calculated using equally spaced transects with observational recording of stream water depth, stream velocity, vegetative cover, and stream bed substrate composition. Comparisons of habitat use between the two species were analyzed using several statistical programs to infer competition or segregation.
In June 2017, Lake Sturgeon were observed spawning in Fall Creek, a tributary to Cayuga Lake, NY. The spawning site was just downstream of Ithaca Falls, the first impassible barrier. Data were collected to quantify the stream habitat use by the Lake Sturgeon. These were the first sturgeon observed spawning in a Cayuga Lake tributary recorded in the New York Department of Environmental Conservation historical fish records. Habitat and egg deposition data were collected at 10 stations on 15 cross stream transects, spaced at least 10 m apart. Eggs were collected with using 7 cm diameter core sampler at least 3 stations on each transect. Water depth, stream velocity, and substrate composition data were collected at...

Location, occurrence, collection information, and genetic species identification data in support of an analysis of the spatial separation of Lake Whitefish and Cisco larvae in Chaumont Bay, Lake Ontario, the last known spawning area of both species in American waters of Lake Ontario. Genetic species identification of larval coregonines collected between April 2004 and 2015 is provided for larval samples collected from nearshore and offshore areas.
These data include survival information for Cisco in the laboratory for up to 30 days after surgical implantation of two different sizes of Lotek acoustic tags. Three-hundred fish of a range of sizes were used for the implantation and controls of this experiment, which was repeated three time. Ancillary data of surgical condition, recovery, and time until death or tag expulsion were also recorded, as well as sizes at beginning and end of observation period and estimated growth.
