摘要

Pacific salmon abundance along the West Coast of Canada has been in sharp decline since the early 1990s. In this paper, we consider the effects of climate change on the abundance of wild Pacific salmon stocks and potential genetic, ecological and disease concerns. Shifts in climate in 1977 and 1989 resulted in significant changes in production for a number of marine fish species including Pacific salmon. These climate-related changes, combined with local overfishing and the loss of freshwater habitat, have left some salmon stocks at very low levels. Large-scale salmon enhancement projects have resulted in significant ecological and genetic interactions with wild salmon, particularly for coho and chinook stocks. These interactions have tended to reduce genetic diversity and result in the replacement of wild salmon by hatchery fish. Hatcheries also represent a potential source of pathogens although the magnitude of the problem is difficult to quantify because the disease agents of concern are widespread in wild and hatchery Pacific salmon and a number of non-salmonid hosts. The same antibiotics used in salmon farming are also used in salmon enhancement projects, making it difficult to identify the source of some pathogens. Although farmed salmon are a potential source for these disease pathogens, surveys of pathogens in wild and hatchery fish show no patterns that could be attributed to salmon farming. Recent improvements in fish husbandry, including the development and widespread use of vaccines, have reduced the risk of disease transfer from farmed fish to wild or hatchery fish. It is concluded that salmon farming, as currently practiced in British Columbia, poses a low risk to wild salmon stocks particularly when compared with other potentialfactors.
