Title A Model-Based Assessment of the Potential Response of Snake River Spring/Summer Chinook Salmon to Habitat Improvements
Creator McHugh, Peter Budy, Phaedra E. Schaller, H.
Description The current recovery strategy for threatened Snake River Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha relies heavily on improvements to the quality of freshwater spawning and rearing habitat; however, the potential survival benefit from these actions is unknown. To address this issue, we created a model for predicting the early freshwater survival rates (egg to smolt) of this species as a function of five easily measured physical habitat variables and used this model to evaluate survival rates...
