It frames risks created by recurring lampricide (TFM) treatments used for sea lamprey control and the resulting importance of understanding age-class structure, birth and death rates, habitat use, seasonal movement, and sex ratio. The study targets abundance above and below major dams, habitat suitability via substrate mapping, and seasonal ecology essential for managing current and future stonecat populations.",{"@graph":63,"@context":110},[64,80,101],{"@type":65,"itemListElement":66},"BreadcrumbList",[67,71,74,77],{"item":68,"name":69,"@type":70,"position":9},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":72,"name":10,"@type":70,"position":73},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/",2,{"item":75,"name":11,"@type":70,"position":76},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/presentations/",3,{"item":78,"name":59,"@type":70,"position":79},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/stonecat-abundance-and-population-parameters-in-vermonts-missisquoi-and-laplatte-rivers-masters-proposal/177610/",4,{"url":78,"name":59,"@type":81,"image":82,"author":87,"headline":59,"publisher":90,"fileFormat":93,"inLanguage":57,"description":61,"dateModified":94,"datePublished":95,"encodingFormat":93,"isAccessibleForFree":96,"interactionStatistic":97},"DigitalDocument",{"url":83,"@type":84,"width":85,"height":86},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/stonecat-abundance-and-population-parameters-in-vermonts-missisquoi-and-laplatte-rivers-masters-proposal/177610.png","ImageObject",442,249,{"name":88,"@type":89},"Lucas Vance","Person",{"url":68,"name":91,"@type":92},"DocShare","Organization","application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document","2026-10-16","2026-09-02",true,{"@type":98,"interactionType":99,"userInteractionCount":47},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":100},"ViewAction",{"@type":102,"mainEntity":103},"FAQPage",[104],{"name":105,"@type":106,"acceptedAnswer":107},"Which population and habitat parameters will be measured?","Question",{"text":108,"@type":109},"The proposal targets abundance, habitat use, age class structure, sex ratio, and seasonal movement.
