We’re back with another Science Friday, this one an update on a recent Elwha River Field Day from our Science Director, John McMillan.
Field Day Friday: Elwha summer steelhead survey
Fall means another field season of studying steelhead in the Elwha River is over and this is the fourth consecutive year we have counted steelhead in the Elwha by snorkeling various river reaches.
Field Day Friday: Releasing rescued steelhead into the Pacific Ocean
For this week’s Field Day Friday, we have a guest scientist, Riley Gallagher, providing us an update on his work with steelhead in the Carmel River on the central coast of California.
Field Day Friday: A heat blast for young-of-year steelhead
The Pacific Northwest just experienced one heck of an abnormal heat wave. Temperatures soared up to, and in some places beyond, 117F. These are extremely warm temperatures for late June, and the sharp increase had an effect on emergence timing of juvenile steelhead, which we dive into for Field Day Friday.
It’s Steelhead Fryday!
It’s steelhead fryday and we have you covered with a look into the early life stage of steelhead and the various types of behavior and biology at play.
Field Day Friday: The high value of two redds in one
Is there anything special about a winter steelhead redd in late May? Perhaps not, in general, but sometimes if we look more closely some interesting details might emerge.
