DART provides interactive and timely public access to integrated Columbia Basin salmonid, environmental, operational, riverine, ocean and climatic data resources for sound management of the Columbia Basin resources and hydrosystem by federal, state, tribal, public and private entities. Includes raw and summary data, stock status, ESU populations, conversion rates and fish-environmental exposure information.
Status & Trends provides interactive seasonal summaries and migration performance analysis. Adult and smolt salmonid monitoring data analyses include adult escapement for various spawning aggregations, survival and travel time estimates, SAR estimates and ROSTER (River-Ocean Survival and Transportation Effects Routine) results. Also: fish exposure to hydrosystem conditions, Mid Columbia salmon status, NW temperature, and ocean indices.
Inseason Forecasts presents migration season "real time" status and prediction of various juvenile and adult salmon populations run timing, adult run size and river conditions at dams throughout the Columbia Basin. Uses real time information about the current status of various Columbia Basin juvenile and adult salmon runs with current hydrographic information to predict the future progress of the migrating fish.
CBR has developed many theoretical and empirical analysis tools and models related to fish passage, fish growth, parameter estimation—interactive software for analyzing fish tagging studies—and vitality. Downloads are available for most tools and models.
CBR investigates issues surrounding salmon biology in the Columbia and Snake River basins. Publications include referreed journal articles, technical papers, theses, dissertations, technical manuals, and white papers. Focus areas include mathematical ecology with emphasis on migration of organisms, decision processes, and mortality processes; and mark-recapture tagging studies, primarily on salmonid stocks in the Columbia Basin.
