| Abstract | The Independent Multidisciplinary Science Team (IMST) convened a panel of experts on stream temperature and fish ecology in Corvallis, Oregon on October 5-6, 2000 for a scientific workshop on human influences on stream temperature and responses by salmonids. The workshop was designed to review and discuss scientifically credible data and publications about 1) factors related to human activity that influence stream temperature and 2) behavioral, physical, and ecological mechanisms of cold water fish species for existing in streams with elevated temperatures. The goal of the workshop was to review empirical evidence and to identify points of agreement, disagreement, and knowledge gaps within the scientific community concerning the factors that influence stream temperature and fish responses to elevated temperatures. This report includes abstracts of plenary presentations (provided by the speaker unless noted otherwise) on factors that influence stream temperatures and fish responses, and the results of group discussions. |
