• Trophic ecology of Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) in the ocean: a synthesis of stable isotope research (2009, background): “…differences exist, this study highlights the overall pattern of isotope signatures in the five species of Pacific salmon and will be of use to studies examining the marine contribution of salmon to freshwater and terrestrial food webs (Gende et al. 2002; Naiman et al. 2002; Schindler et al. 2003).”
• Variation in responses to spawning Pacific salmon among three south-eastern Alaska streams (2004, background): “…U.S.A. Freshwater Biology (2004) 49, 587–599 2004 Blackwell Publishing Ltd 587 During their upstream migrations to spawn, salmon fertilise streams and adjacent riparian areas with nutrients through excretion, release of gametes and carcass decomposition (Gende et al., 2002; Naiman et al., 2002).”
• Transfer of Nutrients from Spawning Salmon to Riparian Vegetation in Western Washington (2003, background): “Numerous interacting mechanisms are responsible for the distribution of marine-derived nutrients into riparian ecosystems ( Gende et al. 2002 ).”
• Effects of riparian canopy opening and salmon carcass addition on the abundance and growth of resident salmonids (2005, background): “Factors affecting pathways of nutrient transfer and the ability of salmonids to benefit from salmon carcasses include stream retentiveness, discharge, consumption by aquatic consumers and terrestrial wildlife, riparian conditions, and ambient water chemistry (Gende et al. 2002).”
• A metapopulation perspective for salmon and other anadromous fish (2007, background): “Flooding and the action of bears and other animals move these nutrients to the nearby terrestrial ecosystems, further expanding the ecological influence of salmon (Gende et al. 2002).”
• Dramatic Declines in North Atlantic Diadromous Fishes (2009, background): “These subsidies of “marine-derived nutrients” often serve as critical additions of energy and nutrients that fuel foodwebs well beyond the streams in which they died (Gende et al. 2002).”
• Biological Impacts of the Elwha River Dams and Potential Salmonid Responses to Dam Removal (2008, background): “The combination of blocking upstream migration and overall loss of anadromous salmonids has also led to a potentially significant decline in marine derived nutrients (MDN) levels throughout the Elwha River Basin, which can effect aquatic and terrestrial ecosystem productivity (Gende et al. 2002).”
• Transportation of Pacific salmon carcasses from streams to riparian forests by bears (2009, background): “Salmon-derived nutrients from carcasses have been found in virtually every trophic level in riparian forests, entering via both direct (consumption) and indirect (nutrient recycling) mechanisms ( Gende et al. 2002 ).”
• Stress Indicators in Fish (2016, background): “, 2013) and ecosystem-level processes (Gende et al., 2002).”
• The Ecological Role of the Mammalian Mesocarnivore (2009, background): “Much as grizzly bears facilitate the movement of nitrogen and other nutrients from marine to terrestrial ecosystems (Gende et al. 2002), and killer whales link pelagic and nearshore marine communities (Estes et al. 1998), otters may have the potential to link aquatic and terrestrial communities.”
• Patterns, Causes, and Consequences of Anthropocene Defaunation (2016, background): “Similarly, the loss of salmon from riparian ecosystems causes long-term shifts in nutrient delivery that affect invertebrate abundance, riparian plant communities, and even abundance of terrestrial megafauna (Gende et al. 2002).”
• Process-Based Principles for Restoring River Ecosystems (2010, background): “For example, migration barriers prevent migratory fishes from accessing their spawning grounds in small streams, limiting the upstream extent of habitat used and reducing the amount of marinederived nutrients introduced into a river system (Gende et al. 2002).”
• Varying effects of anadromous sockeye salmon on the trophic ecology of two species of resident salmonids in southwest Alaska (2007, background): “Terrestrial wildlife, such as birds, mammals and insects also consume salmon eggs and carcasses (Cederholm et al., 1989; Willson, Gende & Marson, 1998; Gende et al., 2002).”
• Effects of the abundance of spawning sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) on nutrients and algal biomass in forested streams (2004, background): “The spawning and death of adult anadromous Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) may influence the productivity of oligotrophic freshwaters (Cederholm et al. 1999; Gresh et al. 2000; Gende et al. 2002).”
• Overfishing of Inland Waters (2005, background): “Nutrients derived from decaying fish that are transported into terrestrial habitats by subsurface flow, flooding, and consumers fertilize terrestrial ecosystems and enhance the growth and diversity of plants and soil microbes (Gende et al. 2002).”
