wfrc.usgs.gov — Salmonid species in the Pacific Northwest continue to decline despite management efforts to mitigate the effects of development of the Columbia River basin and power system. Altered fish species diversity and changes in the aquatic habitat have created the need for research to determine the status, life history, and habitat requirements of at risk More...

wfrc.usgs.gov — The objective of this study is to determine the approach pattern and passage locations of juvenile salmonids to assist in planning decisions relative to a behavioral guidance structure at The Dalles Dam. This will be accomplished by comparing estimates of fish, spill and sluiceway passage efficiencies of fish with different approach patterns. The More...

wfrc.usgs.gov — The Santa Ana sucker (Catostomus santaanae), was recently identified by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) as a species of special concern. This sucker is endemic to the Los Angeles, San Gabriel, and Santa Ana river drainages of southern California. The purpose of this study was to develop a better understanding of environmental factors More...
