Research Abstract |
The conSequences of nutrient loss and attendant low productivity on biodiversity and productivity in the ecosystem has recently invoked the interest of researchers, as result of loss of wild anadromous fish by acceleration of urbanization and deterioration of natural riparian ecosystem such as dam construction, habitat destruction, and artificial hatchery program. In Japan, chum salmon (Oncorhvnchus keta) have been mass-produced by hatchery program, while numerous wild Pacific salmon have been almost extinguished by a combination of the urbanization and the deterioration of riparian ecosystem. Anadromous fish are keystone specieS for sustaining production and biodi ersity in the riparian-ecosystem. For sustainable conservation management of riparian ecosystem, the rehabilitations of wild salmon populatiOn, system of material cycle, and natural rivers are critical important the rivers in Japan..
