Expanding Net of Protection for Salmon
In May, Puget Sound steelhead was listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act. With the addition of the listing, half of Washington's salmon species are at risk of extinction. Despite the troubling trend, we have reason to hope.
Observational Evidence of Spatial and Temporal Structure in a Sympatric Anadromous (Winter Steelhead) and Resident Rainbow Trout Mating System on the Olympic Peninsula, Washington
We documented the spawning distribution and male mating tactics of sympatric anadromous rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss (winter steelhead) and resident rainbow trout in the Calawah and Sol Duc River basins, Washington. Snorkel surveys and in situ behavioral observations were used to determine the spatial and temporal distribution patterns and male mating tactics of anadromous, resident, and hatchery residual fish across the spawning season.

International experience and practice have demonstrated the importance of functional feedback mechanisms for successful management of protected areas. One such feedback mechanism may be a multi-stakeholder advisory council, the various members of which are united by their interest in the operations and development of a given PA.
