...Many northern anadromous fishes time their emergence to the breakup of ice at the river mouth and the development of the river plume (Ponton et al. 1993)....

...Fresher nearshore waters may introduce and select for new trophic assemblages (Falk-Peterson et al. 2006), with varying impacts on the long-term trends of predator–prey relationships that could affect Arctic salmon distribution and abundance....

...The timing of spawning and the selection of spawning sites by anadromous fish is particularly critical to recruitment success in the Arctic (Ponton et al. 1993)....

...Despite long winters, highly diverse delta ecosystems provide significant habitat for many Arctic fishes (Ponton et al. 1993), and are important to the salmon that currently inhabit the Arctic (Irvine et al. 2009b)....

...Three of the 14 families of marine fish inhabiting Hudson Bay were not represented in our samples: Zoarcidae (three Arctic species) whose reproduction is poorly documented (Scott and Scott 1988), Cyclopteridae (three non-Arctic species) whose larvae are never truly planktonic (Russel 1976), and Clupeidae (Clupea harengus)....

...Because of this slow development and the short production season, fish larvae are presumably more likely to encounter adverse environmental conditions at these high latitudes than at lower latitudes (Houde 1989)....
