Modeling Delta Smelt Losses at the South Delta Export Facilities [PDF]
San Francisco Estuary and Watershed Science, 2011 I previously estimated proportional losses of delta smelt to the water export facilities in the south Delta (Kimmerer 2008). This note is in response to Miller (2010), who disputes these estimated losses on several grounds.

Compounding Impacts—Genomic Exploration of the Potential Effect of Domestic Introgression on Climate Adaptation in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) [PDF]
Evolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 10, October 2026.ABSTRACT Predicting population, species, and community responses to climate change is critical for the successful management of wild ecosystems. However, climate change does not act alone. Interactions among climate change and other anthropogenic threats could significantly complicate predictions of global change yet have rarely been examined.
