Fine-scale movement of juvenile salmon to inform tidal fish passage restoration in Puget Sound

The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) collaborated with tribal partners and restoration practitioners to complete a study of fish movement and tidal hydraulics in estuarine habitats, particularly related to juvenile salmon in tidal environments, such as embayments and river deltas. This study is intended to provide technical background for improvement of tidal barrier assessment and evaluation, as well as design of tidal water crossing structures.

This webinar is a final product of a project supported in part by the WDFW Estuary and Salmon Restoration Program (ESRP). ESRP includes a Learning Program, which funds science projects of regional importance to advance learning about cutting-edge ecosystem and habitat restoration strategies for the purpose of increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of future capital restoration projects.
