Life history reconstruction and stock identification of Sockeye Salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) using otolith trace element chemistry

Recent advances in otolith microchemistry have established that trace element composition can be used to chemically reconstruct fish life history and serve as a stock identification tool. In modern fisheries practices, these two applications are especially pertinent to wild salmon populations, whic...
