A bioenergetic model for Redside Shiner was developed, providing a tool to assess its trophic role in invaded ecosystems and evaluate potential impacts on native species. Results showed that increased water temperature may favor growth and expansion of Redside Shiner populations while negatively affecting some salmonids.
Objective: Redside Shiner Richardsonius balteatus has expanded from its native range in the Pacific Northwest region of North America to establish populations in six other western states. This expansion has fueled concerns regarding competition between Redside Shiner and native species, including salmonids. We developed a bioenergetic model for Redside Shiner, providing a powerful tool to quantify its trophic role in invaded ecosystems and evaluate potential impacts on native species.Methods: Mass-and temperature-dependent functions for consumption and respiration were fit based on controlled laboratory experiments of maximum consumption rates and routine metabolic rates using intermittent-flow respirometry, across a range of fish sizes (0.6- 27.3 g) and temperatures (5- 31 degrees C). Laboratory growth experiments were conducted to corroborate model performance across different temperatures and feeding rates.Result: Initial bioenergetic simulations of long-term growth experiments indicated large model error for predicted consumption and growth, and deviations from ob-served responses varied systematically as a function of daily consumption rate (Jmiddotg(-1)middotd(-1)) and water temperature. A growth rate error correction function was de-veloped and included in the bioenergetics model framework on a daily time step, resulting in decreased absolute model error in all experimental groups. Predicted values from the corrected model were highly correlated with observed values (R-2; consumption = 0.97, final weight = 0.99) and unbiased. These results show that the optimal temperature for Redside Shiner growth (18 degrees C) exceeds that of Pacific salmon Oncorhynchus spp. by 2- 6 degrees C under a scenario of high food availability and moderate food quality.Conclusion: Consequently, increases in water temperature associated with climate change may favor growth and expansion of Redside Shiner populations, while nega-tively affecting some salmonids. The bioenergetics model presented here provides the necessary first step in quantifying trophic impacts in sensitive ecosystems where Redside Shiner have invaded or in ecosystems where anadromous salmonid reintro-ductions are being considered.
