This chapter contains a preliminary presentation of a vertical distribution model and an initial application to data. The model, with a few simple assumptions, is remarkably consistent with data from Lower Monumental Dam. In order to apply the model, more studies are required. Ideally, the reaction of juvenile salmonids to a light gradient will be better understood to strengthen the model. Also, it would be beneficial to conduct controlled experiments where the physical features are characterized leaving just the behavioral parameter to be estimated.
