Using a non-physical behavioural barrier to alter migration routing of juvenile Chinook salmon in the Sacramento–San Joaquin River Delta Using a non-physical behavioural barrier to alter migration routing of juvenile Chinook salmon in the Sacramento–San Joaquin River Delta
Anthropogenic alterations to river systems, such as irrigation and hydroelectric development, can negatively affect fish populations by reducing survival when fish are routed through potentially dangerous locations. Non-physical barriers using behavioural stimuli are one means of guiding fish away from such locations without obstructing water flow. In the Sacramento–San Joaquin River...

Survival and migration route probabilities of juvenile Chinook salmon in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta during the winter of 2009-10 Survival and migration route probabilities of juvenile Chinook salmon in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta during the winter of 2009-10
Juvenile Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) emigrating from natal tributaries of the Sacramento River may use a number of migration routes to negotiate the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta (hereafter, "the Delta"), each of which may influence their probability of surviving. We applied a mark-recapture model to data from acoustically tagged juvenile late-fall Chinook salmon that...

2011 Georgiana Slough non-physical barrier performance evaluation project report 2011 Georgiana Slough non-physical barrier performance evaluation project report
The Sacramento River and its tributaries support populations of anadromous fish species including winter-run, spring-run, fall-run, and late fall–run Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha); and steelhead (O. mykiss). Several of these species are listed as threatened or endangered under the California Endangered Species Act (CESA), federal Endangered Species Act (ESA), or both. These...

Using mark-recapture models to estimate survival from telemetry data: Chapter 9.2 Using mark-recapture models to estimate survival from telemetry data: Chapter 9.2
Analyzing telemetry data within a mark–recapture framework is a powerful approach for estimating demographic parameters (e.g., survival and movement probabilities) that might otherwise be difficult to measure. Yet many studies using telemetry techniques focus on fish behavior and fail to recognize the potential of telemetry data to provide information about fish survival. The...

Time-to-event analysis as a framework for quantifying fish passage performance Time-to-event analysis as a framework for quantifying fish passage performance
Fish passage is the result of a sequence of processes, whereby fish must approach, enter, and pass a structure. Each of these processes takes time, and fishway performance is best quantified in terms of the rates at which each process is completed. Optimal performance is achieved by maximizing the rates of approach, entry, and passage through safe and desirable routes. Sometimes, however...

Bias from false-positive detections and strategies for their removal in studies using telemetry Bias from false-positive detections and strategies for their removal in studies using telemetry
The use of radio and acoustic telemetry to study aquatic animals has flourished since the 1950s and 1960s (see Section 1). Electronic data-logging receivers are commonly used in both types of active telemetry to record the presence of transmitters in the detection field formed by one or more antennas or hydrophones. As described in Sections 5.1 and 7.1, the path of a transmitter signal...
