Working with people to create and apply science in bull trout conservation
Co-production of models to evaluate conservation alternatives for a threatened fish in a rapidly changing landscape
Reintroductions are one means of managing species distributions, but the feasibility of such efforts is uncertain. Here we consider reintroduction for threatened bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) that currently occupy a small fraction of historically occupied habitats in the upper Klamath River basin owing to climate warming and human modifications of ecosystems. We engaged stakeholders across m
Climate vulnerability for a desert fish: Integrating hydrologic exposures, adaptive capacity, and growth potential
Resist, accept, and direct responses to biological invasions: A social–ecological perspective
Pathways of productivity and influences on top consumers in forested streams
Beyond sticks and stones: Integrating physical and ecological conditions into watershed restoration assessments using a food web modeling approach
Can nutrient additions facilitate recovery of Pacific salmon?
Magnitude and direction of stream–forest community interactions change with timescale
Thermal heterogeneity, migration, and consequences for spawning potential of female bull trout in a river-reservoir system
Decision analysis for the reintroduction of Bull Trout into the lower Pend Oreille River, Washington
Stream metabolism increases with drainage area and peaks asynchronously across a stream network
Quantification of the indirect use value of functional group diversity based on the ecological role of species in the ecosystem
