3 Transport Reach Campbell: long, narrow slough Franz: narrow slough connected to lake Increasing tidal influence
4 Chlorophyll peaks are dominated by diatoms in the mainstem Columbia River Real time data Microscopic counts Maier, 2014
5 DIATOMS Diatoms High polyunsaturated fatty acids High nutritional quality Dominate spring blooms Thrive under moderate to high turbulence CYANOBACTERIA CHLOROPHYTES Mark Lane, slideplayer.com
6 Peaks in total phytoplankton biomass tend to be highest at Campbell Slough and Franz Lake Slough 2016
7 High resolution data show peaks in cyanobacteria pigments at Campbell and Franz Campbell Slough Franz Lake Slough Chlorophyll Phycocyanin
8 Chlorophytes and cyanobacteria dominate at Campbell and Franz
9 Diatoms dominate at Welch and Whites
10 Chlorophyll peaks include more flagellate and cyanobacteria in sluggish offchannel sites Concentrations are more variable Phytoplankton Abundance Phytoplankton Abundance (cells ml -1 ) (cells ml -1 ) Franz Lake Slough Apr May Jun Jul Aug Campbell Slough Apr May Jun Jul Aug Apr May Jun Jul Aug Apr May Jun Jul Aug Apr May Jun Jul Aug Apr May Jun Jul Aug Apr May Jun Jul Aug Apr May Jun Jul Aug Apr May Jun Jul Aug Apr May Jun Jul Aug Phytoplankton Abundance (cells ml -1 ) Whites Island Bacillariophyceae N 2 fixing Cyanobacteria Non N 2 fixing Cyanobacteria Other Phytoplankton 0 Apr May Jun Jul Aug Apr May Jun Jul Aug Apr May Jun Jul Aug Apr May Jun Jul Aug Apr May Jun Jul Aug
11 Canonical Correspondence Analysis illuminated environmental variables associated with changes in phytoplankton species Asterionella formosa Skeletonema potamos Tausz, 2015
12 Trends in plankton abundance Phytoplankton abundance inversely correlated with river discharge; ~10% higher in shallow water habitats compared to mainstem; abundances can be higher in areas of longer retention than well-flushed areas Zooplankton abundance highest at Campbell Slough
13 Transport Reach Campbell: long, narrow slough Franz: narrow slough connected to lake Increasing tidal influence
14 Observations Site differences Whites Island: same as mainstem Campbell and Franz: different from mainstem when connectivity is low (summer, drought) Asterionella (spring) Skeletonema (summer) Similar to mainstem, originate in mainstem Poor connectivity = difference in diatoms (small Nitzschia sp.) Cyanobacteria (Microcystis sp.) dominant in summer at Campbell Slough and Franz Lake Slough
15 Significance Phytoplankton groups differ in their food quality (e.g., diatoms > chlorophytes > cyanobacteria) S flagellates :S total phytoplankton nutritional quality/water quality index Phytoplankton influence water quality: dissolved oxygen, ph Some species produce toxins

18 Sampling methods Samples include: Juvenile Chinook salmon muscle and liver April August Franz, Campbell, Whites, Welch, Ilwaco Food sources: invertebrates (amphipods, chironomids, nematodes, polychaetes, oligochaetes, copepods, cladocerans, etc.) Primary producers (live & dead vegetation, periphyton, particulate organic matter)
19 Methods Stable isotopes can be used to infer relationships between consumers and food sources Different tissues integrate over different timescales Overcomes biases associated with assimilation vs. ingestion, as well as difficulty identifying partially digested prey d 13 C = R sample - R standard / R standard x 1000 (units = )
20 Methods There are a variety of Isotope mixing models that try to predict who is eating what, when Bayesian mixing model: Simmr Sample several sources to determine 13 C/ 12 C and 15 N/ 14 N ratios and make a series of iterative best guesses about how a consumer is composed of combinations of sources
21 Assumptions Different food sources have distinct enough signatures to discriminate between them Assume an increase in 13 C and 15 N with each ascending trophic level of ~1 per mil and 3-5 per mil, respectively Did not account for differences in concentration/availability

30 Fish use of estuarine resources: Insights from stable isotopes Hatchery fish are heavier with respect to carbon, but lighter with respect to nitrogen than wild fish Summer source values were heavier than spring There were only small isotopic differences between living and dead plant matter within a given time frame Livers were lighter in C and N compared to muscle (data not shown here)
31 Ongoing work Separate isotope data spatially and temporally Compare liver and muscle tissues of fish to discern differences at varying time scales Explore source concentration effects and integrate with stomach contents data Ideally, integrate molecular approaches to trace prey consumption and assimilation patterns
