Estimating at-vessel mortality rates of shortfin mako sharks caught in the US pelagic longline fishery and examining environmental drivers of their depth use in the North Atlantic Ocean
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
and recreational fishers that catch mako sharks. However, if mako sharks are caught as bycatch in commercial fisheries experience high at-vessel mortality rates (AVM) than these conservation measures may do little to help rebuild the stock. I examined AVM of mako...
Landscape and inchannel factors affecting the distribution and abundance of riverine smallmouth bass in Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
I developed a series of spatially-nested research objectives to identify habitat elements related to the distribution and abundance of riverine smallmouth bass Micropterus dolomieu in Missouri. The range of smallmouth bass was identified using a few...
Tales of an 'invisible' life stage : survival and physiology among terrestrial juvenile ambystomatid salamanders
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
