Links and Information

Background

What we found:

  • Efficacy of Mechanical Removal
  • RBT abundance was high and variable, partially offset by trout immigration
  • BNT were more predaceous than RBT
  • RBT were more numerous than BNT
  • Predation risk is a function of both density & predatory behavior

Information Needs:

  • What controls trout abundance?
  • Where were RBT migrants originating from?
  • What controls trout abundance?
  • Where were RBT migrants originating from?
  • How many sub-adult HBC move into the mainstem?
  • How variable was subadult HBC survival?
  • Was there a relationship between HBC survival & RBT abundance?

Outcomes: • Develop alternative sampling methods for determining trout and chub abundance and vital rates • Natal Origin Project: Movement and Trout dynamics • NSE/JCM Projects: Juvenile HBC survival and Regulating factors
