^: <br />3. The UL has designed and .directed° a diversity of studies aimed at improved <br />management of fisheries. These include a study of effects of angler wading on <br />trout recruitment. This original research demonstrated probable impacts to <br />cutthroat trout recruitment and the stream was closed to wading during critical <br />periods. This action resulted in easement of landowner tension over the stream <br />access law and was beneficial to, the fishery. The resulting publication was a <br />finalist for the 1992 Best Paper Award. in.the North American Journal of Fisheries <br />Management. Popularized summaries of the research have appeared in at least <br />three angling magazines. A follow -up study on the Yellowstone River in <br />Yellowstone National Park predicted no ; population -level effects of angler wading <br />on cutthroat trout and wading was not, restricted. Recently the UL and a FWS <br />biologist found that electrofishing resulted in reduced growth of trout and grayling. <br />Results are being used by the state in support of their electrofishing policy and <br />have major implications related to research design. An assessment of four <br />domestic strains of rainbow trout was used by cooperators to select the best strain <br />for particular management objectives. Another study used temperature and <br />feeding regime to mass -mark hatchery fish for management purposes. Findings <br />of these and other applied studies have immediate application and are at the heart <br />of meeting the objectives of the Unit Program. <br />4. The incumbent has served : as a leader in the fisheries profession through <br />involvement in the American fisheries Society, the principal professional society <br />representing fisheries scientists. Hp. served in all elected offices including <br />President at the Chapter, Division and Society levels. This involvement reflects his <br />standing in the profession, leadership skills and commitment to fisheries science. <br />He has served as chairperson or member of many AFS committees (see page 19). <br />He is presently Chair, Award ofExcellen.ce's Committee. In the early 1980's, when <br />small hydropower development was becoming a major concern, he initiated and <br />served as chair of an international symposium on "Small Hydropower and <br />Fisheries ". He often chairs sessions at professional meetings and serves as peer <br />reviewer for various journals. He has had long -term involvement in promoting <br />student participation in AFS. One of his students was a runner -up for the best <br />student paper at the 1994 Annual AFS meeting. Another student earned the Best <br />Student Poster Award at they 1987 Annual AFS meeting. Seven of his students <br />have received the Best Student Paper Award of the Montana Chapter AFS. <br />5. The Unit Leader has served as major professor of 41 graduate students (35 since <br />last promotion). Providing the opportunity for, and assisting with the academic <br />and professional development of,. students is perhaps his most important <br />contribution. Former students are now employed by private, state and federal <br />agencies and are having significant influence on fishery resource conservation and <br />management. <br />46 <br />
