| Title | Acoustic measures of the relationship between winter severity and overwinter mortality of alewives |

| Description | Alewives (Alosa pseudoharengus) are an important introduced prey species in many U.S. lakes including New York States Finger Lakes and Lakes Ontario, Michigan, and Huron. Alewives have proven to be the predominant prey item of introduced salmonids and lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) (Stewart and Ibarra 1991; Madenjian 1998). Although this result is consistent with the intentions behind the stocking of nonnative salmonids, the variability in alewife abundance has resulted in a salmonid management situation dependent on the unpredictable alewife stocks. |
