"abstract": "Biotelemetry of shortnose sturgeon\u00a0Acipenser brevirostrum\u00a0and Atlantic sturgeon\u00a0A. oxyrinchus oxyrinchus\u00a0was used to study fish uses of habitat in several hierarchical classes in the Connecticut and Merrimack rivers. Hierarchical classes were geomorphological region (straight river run, run with an island, and river curve), river cross section (channel or shoal), and microhabitat (water depth, bottom current, substrate, and illumination). Coastal wandering juvenile Atlantic sturgeon were summer visitors to the Merrimack River, where they used a narrow range of habitat on all spatial scales, e.g., run-with-island, the channel portion of the cross section, and sand substrate. Shortnose sturgeon, year-round residents in both rivers, showed great individual variation in habitat use, and all ages selected a broad range of habitats on all spatial scales. However, shortnose sturgeon in both rivers preferred curves with sand or cobble substrate and avoided runs regardless of substrate. Individuals used channel or shoal at rates ranging from 0 to 100% on a weekly time scale in an unpredictable manner. Connecticut River shortnose sturgeon increased their use of curves, channels (deep water), and sand substrate in the fall. This strategy may conserve energy because these conditions usually reflect slow water velocity. Winter habitat selection continued the fall pattern, but was less variable because habitat affinity was highest among wintering fish. Documenting individual fish use of large-scale habitat revealed habitat relationships that would not have been discovered if only fish use of microhabitat had been studied.",
