• Barriers and flow as limiting factors in the spread of an invasive crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) in southern California streams (2005, background): “Intentionally introduced barriers have been effective at limiting upstream movement of lampreys and fishes (Novinger and Rahel, 2003; Porto et al., 1999).”
• Strategies for conserving native salmonid populations at risk from nonnative fish invasions: tradeoffs in using barriers to upstream movement (2006, background): “Novinger and Rahel (2003) found no increase in native cutthroat trout in four small Wyoming streams isolated by barriers after 5 to 8 years of removing brook trout by electrofishing, suggesting that the brook trout had little effect.”
• Alien invasions in aquatic ecosystems: Toward an understanding of brook trout invasions and potential impacts on inland cutthroat trout in western North America (2002, unknown): “Isolation of populations can increase the risk of local extinction through a variety of genetic, demographic, behavioral, and environmental influences (Dunham et al., 1997; Harig et al., 2000; Rieman and Dunham, 2000; Kruse et al., 2001; Novinger and Rahel, 2003).”
• An experimental evaluation of competitive and thermal effects on brown trout (Salmo trutta) and Bonneville cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarkii utah) performance along an altitudinal gradient (2005, background): “While the potential for cutthroat trout displacement from downstream habitats due to brook trout invasions is widely acknowledged (Dunham et al. 2002; Novinger and Rahel 2003; Quist and Hubert 2004), the potential for a similar effect of brown trout is rarely considered.”
• Reduced Streamflow Lowers Dry-Season Growth of Rainbow Trout in a Small Stream (2006, background): “…of any linkages between stream discharge and the rates of processes affecting fish populations in small streams should be valuable, given that small streams make up a large proportion of stream networks and may provide refuges for populations of special concern (Novinger and Rahel 2003).”
• Status and Conservation of Westslope Cutthroat Trout within the Western United States (2005, background): “Since genetic introgression and nonnative competition threats may outweigh stochastic risks over the short term for many extant WCT populations, we suggest that isolating the remaining nonintrogressed WCT populations is a prudent, short-term conservation strategy ( Novinger and Rahel 2003 ).”
• Unintended consequences and trade-offs of fish passage (2013, background): “This example further highlights the value trade-offs between the large lake fishes (native and introduced) that benefit from sea lamprey control (lake trout, Salvelinus namaycush, Salmonidae; lake whitefish, Coregonus clupeaformis, Salmonidae; and introduced salmonids, Oncorhychus spp), the fishes t”
• Process-Based Ecological River Restoration: Visualizing Three-Dimensional Connectivity and Dynamic Vectors to Recover Lost Linkages (2006, background): “Examples include the use of dams to prevent sea lampreys from reaching spawning grounds in Great Lake tributary streams (Porto et al. 1999) and brook trout from invading streams inhabited by native cutthroat trout in the Rocky Mountain region (Novinger and Rahel 2003).”
• Intentional Fragmentation as a Management Strategy in Aquatic Systems (2013, background): “Typically, a barrier is constructed, non native species are removed, and native species are returned to upstream segments in a strategy known as isolation man agement (Novinger and Rahel 2003).”
• Documented and Potential Biological Impacts of Recreational Fishing: Insights for Management and Conservation (2006, background): “Introduced fish have threatened native species via competition, predation, and hybridization (e.g., Selgeby, 1998; French and Jude, 2001; Novinger and Rahel, 2003; Simon and Townsend, 2003; Weber and Fausch, 2003, for review; Fritts and Pearson, 2004; Winfield and Durie, 2004; Holthe et al., 2005), ”
• INFLUENCE OF BARRIERS TO MOVEMENT ON WITHIN‐WATERSHED GENETIC VARIATION OF COASTAL CUTTHROAT TROUT (2005, background): “Despite this evidence, the widespread presence of introduced salmonids has created a situation where in tentional isolation is increasingly viewed as an appro priate measure for conservation (Kruse et al. 2001, Novinger and Rahel 2003).”
• Genetic variation and effective population size in isolated populations of coastal cutthroat trout (2010, background): “Isolated populations above stream barriers are similar to those on islands, in that they may be threatened by loss of genetic variation and inbreeding (Wang et al. 2001; Novinger and Rahel 2003).”
• Biogeographic barriers, connectivity and homogenization of freshwater faunas: it's a small world after all (2007, background): “For example, barriers are important for the conservation of native trout in North America (Novinger & Rahel, 2003) and native galaxids in Australia (Jackson et al., 2004).”
• Intercrosses and the U.S. Endangered Species Act: Should Hybridized Populations be Included as Westslope Cutthroat Trout? (2004, background): “Increasing and improving available habitat increases population sizes and thus decreases threats associated with small, isolated populations ( Novinger & Rahel 2003).”
