In particular, we thank Joel van Eenennaam for spawning the fish used in the study, and the Yurok Tribe for donating the broodstock green sturgeon from which the juveniles were spawned. These long-lived fish have rows of bony plates, called “scutes”, instead of scales for protection.

Monitoring of rare species using these indirect methods is feasible and can provide insight into breeding and ontogenetic behaviour. Epub 2011 Feb 1. The fish is only found along the west coast of North America, from Alaska to California. Nelson TC, Doukakis P, Lindley ST, Schreier AD, Hightower JE, Hildebrand LR, Whitlock RE, Webb MA. We developed a framework to test hypotheses about estimating breeding population size indirectly from collections of outmigrating green sturgeon juveniles. While this framework was developed for specific application to studying fish populations in a riverscape, the framework could be advanced to improve genetic estimation of breeding population size and to identify important breeding habitats of rare species when combined with finer-scaled sampling of offspring. 2015 Feb;58(2):170-7. doi: 10.1007/s11427-015-4806-7.

Green sturgeon ranging from 28–38 cm in fork length are known to be entrained into large agricultural water export facilities (State Water Project and Federal Central Valley Project) located in the San Francisco Bay Delta , indicating the presence of these fish in this system, but reliable enumeration that considers the impact of all potential green sturgeon mortality sources is lacking. Although size was a significant factor influencing the way in which fish contacted the screens (i.e., proportion of body contacts, p = 2.5 × 10−9), it did not significantly influence the number of times fish contacted screens or the amount of time fish spent near screens.
