"The U.S. Fish Commission Steamer Albatross made its first cruise to Alaska in 1888 primarily to research the Pacific cod, Gadus macrocephalus; however, Pacific salmon Oncorhynchus spp.,was also to be studied, if time permitted. In 1889, concern for salmon overharvesting prompted Congress to authorize an investi-
gation into the habits, abundance, and distribution of Alaska’s salmon, and in 1890
the Albatross returned to Alaska. Over the next 20+ years the Albatross made many
other productive and pioneering research voyages to Alaska, the last in 1914." |
