Changes in the long-term distribution of commercially caught Cowichan chinook
The Cowichan River, British Columbia (BC), Canada stock of Chinook Salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) is used federally in Canada, as an escapement indicator of the Lower Georgia Strait (BC) Chinook and as such is important both locally and ...

Predicted Stream Temperatures Suggest Challenges for Pacific Salmon in Coming Decades
ABSTRACT Stream temperature is a key performance driver for aquatic species and a direct metric of climate impacts. We adapted a stream temperature model to predict daily temperatures across the Pacific Northwest USA through 2100. Our results suggested that stream temperatures may rise by ~1°C by the 2050's and 2°C by the 2080's, with seasonal and ...

Management strategy evaluation for salmon habitat restoration and hatchery supplementation
Building on three previously published studies, this paper applies population modeling work to evaluate the effects of different habitat and hatchery management strategies on achieving recovery goals for endangered Chinook salmon. We find that it would require a >150% improvement in juvenile survival to achieve recovery goals for population abundance ...

Large dam removal is being used to restore river systems, but questions remain regarding their outcomes. We examine how the removal of two large dams in the Elwha River, coupled with hatchery production and fishing closures, affected population ...

ABSTRACT Light can be used to deter bycatch from fishing nets, but few studies have aimed to quantify how species view and respond to light. Here, we used visual models to predict how target (plaice Pleuronectes platessa) and bycatch (small‐spotted catshark Scyliorhinus canicular and undersized skates, Raja spp) species, captured in mixed demersal ...

Ecological implications of changing hatchery practices for Chinook salmon in the Salish Sea
For over a century, hatchery programs have been used to subsidize natural salmon populations in order to increase fisheries opportunities and, more recently, to conserve declining natural populations.

ABSTRACT Shore‐based observers are increasingly being used in place of at‐sea observers to monitor and sample commercial fisheries catch. However, few evaluations assess whether these programs meet their stated goals or how to optimize them, and industry data are rarely tested for accuracy despite serving as the foundation for catch accounting. Using a

Ceratomyxa shasta: timing of myxospore release from juvenile Chinook salmon
Ceratomyxa shasta is a myxozoan parasite of salmonid fishes endemic to river systems of the Pacific northwest of North America. In the lower Klamath River, California, C.

ABSTRACT Natural populations are increasingly exposed to multiple stressors, such as chemical pollution and climate‐change‐driven heatwaves. While it has become clear that we need to account for stressor interactions, it is less well understood how sequential exposure to different stressors influences organismal responses as well as their potential for
