SALISH SEA MARINE SURVIVAL PROJECT. THE SALISH SEA MARINE SURVIVAL PROJECT LEVERAGES HUMAN AND FINANCIAL RESOURCES FROM THE UNITED STATES AND CANADA TO DETERMINE THE PRIMARY FACTORS AFFECTING THE SURVIVAL OF JUVENILE SALMON AND STEELHEAD IN THE SALISH SEA. IT IS THE LARGEST AND MOST IMPORTANT RESEARCH OF ITS KIND IN THE SHARED WATERS OF BRITISH COLUMBIA AND WASHINGTON STATE WITH OVER 60 PARTNERING ORGANIZATIONS, ADDRESSING A KEY UNCERTAINTY IMPEDING SALMON RECOVERY AND SUSTAINABLE FISHERIES. THE PROJECT IS A COMPREHENSIVE STUDY OF THE PHYSICAL, CHEMICAL AND BIOLOGICAL FACTORS IMPACTING SALMON SURVIVAL, IN ORDER TO IMPROVE OUR COLLECTIVE UNDERSTANDING OF SALMON IN SALTWATER, FACILITATING SMARTER MANAGEMENT AND STRONGER RETURNS.

THE HOOD CANAL BRIDGE ECOSYSTEM IMPACT ASSESSMENT IS INVESTIGATING THE CAUSES OF HIGH FISH MORTALITY AT THE BRIDGE AND WHETHER THE BRIDGE IMPACTS WATER QUALITY IN A PRIORITY WATER BODY OF WASHINGTON STATE.

WE COMPLETED THE ASSESSMENT IN 2019 AND BEGAN TO DEVELOP SOLUTIONS TO TEST THAT WILL REDUCE THIS MORTALITY.
