Comparison of Fish Communities at Random and Nonrandom Locations in a Sand‐Bed River

Abstract: Surveys based on nonrandom site selection, or convenience samples, are often a necessary part of large-scale monitoring programs to help minimize costs. The reliability of convenience samples to inform managers about distributions or population status of imperiled species is questionable, however, because the samples may not be representative of the whole population. We compared fish community data from 20 nonrandom, long-term monitoring sites for Rio Grande Silvery Minnow Hybognathus amarus with those from 20… Show more

“…Beginning with adults, habitat degradation (often in the form of longitudinal fragmentation) and flow alteration interact to truncate upstream adult migration through physical barriers or reducing flow connectivity. The linkage between habitat and flow is unidirectional for reproduction, with habitat degradation (often driven by longitudinal fragmentation due to dam construction) eliciting changes to the natural flow regime which disrupts spawning cues (Archdeacon, Henderson, Austring & Cook, ; Durham & Wilde, , , ). Ichthyoplankton downstream drift is disrupted by the interaction among flow, habitat and water quality.…”

“…Results from our review show that the threats to PBS species are multifaceted and inherently interlinked ( Figure 10). To conceptualize threats across the life history of PBS species, we broadly follow the five categories of anthropogenic drivers highlighted by Dudgeon, Arthington and Gessner (2006) to the natural flow regime which disrupts spawning cues (Archdeacon, Henderson, Austring & Cook, 2015;, 2009a. Ichthyoplankton downstream drift is disrupted by the interaction among flow, habitat and water quality.…”

“…Archdeacon et al. () speculated that not capturing the Rio Grande Silvery Minnow, also federally listed as threatened, at some sites in the Rio Grande River by seining could be attributed to low detection probability. We did not encounter Arkansas River Shiner in the Cimarron River and, for modeling considerations, assumed absence.…”

“…Not surprisingly, sand-bed streams are characterized by diverse instream habitats and highly variable and extreme physicochemical conditions (Matthews and Hill 1979;Fausch and Bestgen 1997;Dodds et al 2004). The high conductivity of the water in sand-bed streams of the Great Plains limits the use of electrofishing; thus, seining is the most common fish sampling gear in wadeable areas (e.g., Widmer et al 2010;Marsh-Matthews and Matthews 2013;Archdeacon et al 2015;Hoagstrom et al 2015;Wilde 2016).…”
