Migration behavior of juvenile salmonids and evaluation of a modified flume entrance at Cowitz Falls Dam, Washington, 2001 Migration behavior of juvenile salmonids and evaluation of a modified flume entrance at Cowitz Falls Dam, Washington, 2001

Historically, the Cowlitz River watershed supported abundant runs of anadromous salmonids. The completion of the surface collection system and fish facility at the Cowlitz Falls Dam presented a unique opportunity to restore anadromous salmonids to the upper Cowlitz River watershed. Collecting smolts at Cowlitz Falls Dam, or before they enter the main body of Riffe Lake, is the key to...

Impacts of the Columbia River hydroelectric system on main-stem habitats of fall chinook salmon Impacts of the Columbia River hydroelectric system on main-stem habitats of fall chinook salmon

Salmonid habitats in main-stem reaches of the Columbia and Snake rivers have changed dramatically during the past 60 years because of hydroelectric development and operation. Only about 13% and 58% of riverine habitats in the Columbia and Snake rivers, respectively, remain. Most riverine habitat is found in the upper Snake River; however, it is upstream of Hells Canyon Dam and not...

Identification of a genetic marker that discriminates ocean-type and stream-type chinook salmon in the Columbia River basin Identification of a genetic marker that discriminates ocean-type and stream-type chinook salmon in the Columbia River basin

A marker based on randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), OT-38, was discovered that nonlethally discriminates between stream-type and ocean-type populations of chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha in the Columbia River basin, including the threatened fall-run (ocean-type) and spring-run (stream-type) Snake River populations. This marker was developed by amplifying chinook salmon...
