When the dams were built it was thought that hatcheries would produce “replacement” salmon and steelhead to make up for the loss of natural production. Since then, our scientific understanding of what hatcheries can and can’t do has grown by leaps and bounds. Today, we now know definitively that hatcheries can’t substitute for wild salmon
Goals In 2013 TU partnered with a landowner to remove a 500-foot section of concrete rip-rap on a popular recreational stretch of the Gunnison River. The armored bank was causing channel incision, and depositing sediment in undesirable locations downstream. Lack of vegetative cover and in-channel refuge increased trout susceptibility to low flows and increased water

Genetic diversity is an important component of population resiliency, providing a varied toolbox fish rely on to adapt to a changing environment. Small, isolated populations inevitably lose genetic variability over time and become more distinctive genetically from other populations. Simply by characterizing genetic patterns within and among populations across a landscape, then, we can glean
