\n\t\tNarragansett, RI — October 1, 2004 —The returns of wild Atlantic salmon to Maine are at all-time lows. The situation became so critical that the salmon in eight Maine streams were listed as endangered. <\/p>\n


\nDr. Robert Stickney, Director, Texas Sea Grant, will give a public lecture on \u201dMaine Atlantic salmon: Searching for a road to recovery\u201d on Wednesday, October 13, at noon, in Corless Auditorium, 溏心vlog免费B站 Bay Campus, South Ferry Road, Narragansett. The lecture part of a 溏心vlog免费B站 Graduate School of Oceanography (GSO) Biology at Noon Seminar Series and is sponsored by Friends of Oceanography,<\/p>\n


\nIn 2001, the National Research Council (NRC) convened a committee to examine whether the fish in the eight streams represented genetically distinct populations and to develop recommendations as to what might be done to re-establish healthy salmon runs in Maine. Stickney\u2019s lecture examines the salmon situation in Maine, the history of the decline, factors that have been identified as contributing to the decline, and the rather unique approach to recovery that is being recommended by the NRC committee. The discussion runs from aquaculture to blueberries and hatcheries to acid rain. The issues described are highly charged and controversy abounds.<\/p>\n


\nDr. Robert Stickney is the Director of the Texas Sea Grant College Program and a Professor of Oceanography at Texas A&M University, College Station, Texas. He received a B.S. in zoology from the University of Nebraska, an M.A. in zoology from the University of Missouri, and a Ph.D. in oceanography from Florida State University. <\/p>\n
