Instream flows: new tools to quantify water quality conditions for returning adult Chinook salmon
Published in Journal of Water Resources Planning and Management
This paper examines the effect of implementing a water transaction program to address potential water quality limitations for returning adult fall-run Chinook salmon in a stream system where the agriculture is the dominant land and water use. Water transactions are becoming an increasingly used approach to provide instream flows during periods when...
Water Temperature Patterns Below Large Groundwater Springs: Management Implications For Coho Salmon In The Shasta River,...
Published in River Research and Applications
Elevated stream temperature is a primary factor limiting the coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) population in California\textquoterights Shasta River Basin. Understanding the mechanisms driving spatial and temporal trends in water temperature throughout the Shasta River is critical to prioritizing river restoration efforts aimed at protecting this ...
