Tyson Hatton
I work as fish biologist at the USGS, Columbia River Research Laboratory (CRRL). I began working at the CRRL in in 1998. My work has primarily focused on salmon and dams in the Pacific Northwest. Most of this work has utilized acoustic telemetry systems or acoustic cameras to monitor behavior and abundance of fish.
Much of my work has focused on juvenile salmon migrating downstream through high head hydroelectric dams with acoustic telemetry and acoustic cameras. Recent work has included acoustic telemetry studies to evaluate fish deterrent structures near navigation locks in the Midwest and developing methods to process acoustic camera data.

Behavior and dam passage of juvenile Chinook salmon at Cougar Reservoir and Dam, Oregon, March 2011 - February 2012
The movements and dam passage of juvenile Chinook salmon implanted with acoustic transmitters and passive integrated transponder tags were studied at Cougar Reservoir and Dam, near Springfield, Oregon. The purpose of the study was to provide information to aid with decisions about potential alternatives for improving downstream passage conditions for juvenile salmonids in this flood-control reserv

A Markov chain analysis of the movements of juvenile salmonids, including sockeye salmon, in the forebay of McNary Dam, Washington and Oregon, 2006-09
Passage and survival data were collected at McNary Dam between 2006 and 2009. These data have provided critical information for resource managers to implement structural and operational changes designed to improve the survival of juvenile salmonids as they migrate past the dam. Much of the valuable information collected at McNary Dam was in the form of three-dimensional (hereafter referred to as 3

A Markov chain analysis of the movements of juvenile salmonids in the forebay of McNary Dam, Washington and Oregon, 2006-09
Passage and survival data for yearling and subyearling Chinook salmon and juvenile steelhead were collected at McNary Dam between 2006 and 2009. These data have provided critical information for resource managers to implement structural and operational changes designed to improve the survival of juvenile salmonids as they migrate past the dam.

Survival and migration behavior of juvenile salmonids at McNary Dam, 2006
During 2006, we used acoustic telemetry and a route-specific survival model (RSSM, Skalski et al. 2002) to estimate behavior, passage, and survival of juvenile salmonids during two different spill operations and diel periods at McNary Dam. An evaluation of 12-h versus 24-h spill was proposed for the spring migration period at McNary Dam. However, high river discharge did not allow for the 12-h spi
