Caught Between a Rock and a Hard Place: Monitoring Chinook Salmon in Californ...
Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) undertake some of the most well-known and well-studied migrations in the animal kingdom. Following extensive migrations through riverine and marine environments, salmon in California’s Central Valley return to highly altered and spatially constrained freshwater spawning habitats. Millions of dollars are spent annually to monitor these migrations and mitigate the effects of habitat loss and hydropower operation on freshwater spawning and rearing habitat. Yet, populations remain imperiled due to increasing water temperatures, water diversions, channel alterations, high predation rates, and replacement of wild stocks with straying hatchery stocks. The Stanislaus River has one of the most comprehensive and longest running life-cycle monitoring programs in the Central Valley. Monitoring activities are designed to track the abundance, distribution, migration characteristics, and habitat use of Chinook salmon, using a variety of different sampling methods and technologies. Rotary screw trap monitoring is used to characterize juvenile downstream migration, while a fish counting weir is used to monitor upstream migration of adults. Snorkel and seining surveys document abundance and habitat use, redd and carcass surveys document spawning, collect biological samples and coded-wire-tags. These data will inform flow management and habitat enhancement to provide suitable conditions for multiple life stages of Chinook salmon.
ESYS Symposium Poster
The document summarizes a study on the effects of drought on rainbow trout populations in two Southern California streams. Methods included monitoring water quality with loggers and electrofishing surveys. Results showed Sweetwater River conditions remained viable for trout with temperatures below 28C and DO above 2.6 mg/L. Boulder Creek saw DO drops to zero in May, making conditions unviable. The study concluded worsening drought is reducing trout numbers through higher temperatures and lower water quality, posing challenges for long-term proliferation of these populations.
Adaptation Strategies for Fisheries Management in Northeastern Minnesota, USA
Adaptation Strategies for Fisheries Management in Northeastern Minnesota, USANorthern Institute of Applied Climate Science
This document discusses adaptation strategies for fisheries management in northeastern Minnesota in response to climate change impacts. It finds that winter is warming faster than summer in the region. Key data gaps are identified around temperature and dissolved oxygen profiles of trout lakes, fish barrier inventories, angling data, and long-term stream monitoring. Strategies developed include emphasizing sustainable forest management, natural channel design for restoration, riparian protection, invasive species monitoring, partnership development, and strategic fish barrier removal. Continuous monitoring is needed to detect changes in stream populations over time to inform adaptive management.2018 GIS in the Rockies: Riparian Shrub Assessment of the Mancos River Canyon...
The Mancos River is the only perennial stream of Mesa Verde National Park and is a vital water source for flora and fauna. Mapping of the riparian shrubs is an important component to understanding the ecological state of the riparian zone, and will ultimately be used to inform future land management and restoration decisions.
Kelps forest by Vanesa and Andrea
Kelp forests are most developed off the California coast and occur in shallow, cold, and nutrient-rich waters. They are home to dense and highly productive kelp plants that can grow up to two feet per day, as well as a diverse array of marine life, including whales, sea otters, and millions of other plants and animals that rely on kelp forests for food and habitat. Giant kelp is one of the fastest growing plants and can reproduce through trillions of spores each year, though individual plants only live up to six years.

This study aimed to 1) create a stable isotope reference for common Arctic berries, 2) determine if coastal and interior berries have detectable isotope differences, and 3) assess the role of interior spring staging areas in pre-nesting nutrient acquisition by Cackling Geese. Stable isotope analysis was performed on berries and goose tissues. Results showed large variations between berry isotope values, making it impossible to distinguish coastal from interior berries. Goose samples also exhibited variations, though some females showed extensive follicle growth indicating pre-nesting nutrient acquisition. Future studies should involve larger berry samples and integrate egg isotope data to better understand goose nutrition before breeding.

Meeting presentation. 2011. Ecological Services of Weeds
This document discusses the ecological services provided by weeds and non-native plants. It notes that while weeds are typically managed to reduce their negative impacts, they can also provide important benefits by providing food, shelter, nesting sites, and perching areas for native wildlife. The document explores various examples of wildlife utilizing weeds and recommends management modifications like altering the timing, intensity, proportion or scale of weed control activities to maintain these ecological services while still meeting management goals. The goal is to recognize and preserve the wildlife value weeds can provide through a "dual goals" approach to management.

Part 1 l. superior making it great
Lake Superior is faced with many of the same issues which affect the lower Great Lakes. These include chemical contaminants, habitat loss and degradation, areas of concern and developing sustainability. Problems are intensified by new and emerging issues such as a huge increase in proposed mining developments along with severe economic downturn due to industry losses in the forestry sector. For close to 20 years, the Lake Superior Binational Forum representing citizen stakeholders, co-ordinated by EcoSuperior and Northland College, has been at the centre of Lake Superior Binational Program restoration and protection efforts. A detailed review of programs and projects implemented by these organizations, both successes and failures, reveals useful lessons. Initiatives include a full range of activities from benthic biomonitoring, survey research and pollution prevention to outreach campaigns and community events. Such practical experience on this Great Lakes source watershed is essential information for all organizations striving to achieve future progress in meeting Lakewide Management Plan goals.
