Hatchery origin Chinook salmon that reproduce in the wild have similar relative reproductive success as wild fish, suggesting that a single generation in the wild increases the fitness of hatchery-reared salmon. doi.org/10.1111/eva.13678

Marine Science Day! SFGL participated in another successful MSD at @HatfieldMSC. With over 1900 visitors, we fielded lots of great questions (Dr. O'Malley & Dr. @k_olsen_ecoevo )! Can't wait for next year April 12, 2025! 📷cred: Dr. @JMillerOSU

SFGL M.S. student Ben Wiley presented the key question driving his thesis research on monitoring Bull Trout at the ORAFS annual meeting! Environmental DNA (eDNA) is often used to evaluate presence/absence, but is it effective at quantifying relative abundance of target species??

Hot off the press! Do "half pounders" return as early-, late-summer, or winter run steelhead? SFGL and ODFW found that in Oregon's Rogue River half pounders are a mixed assemblage from all three adult runs. Photo: P. Samarin link.springer.com/article/10…
