Title:
L: 162 - Summarize & Analyze Catch, Escapement, & CWT Data For Stock Status Monitoring Purposes
Description:
Annual abundance estimates plus fishery stock and age composition data are essential for monitoring the status of wild/natural and hatchery produced salmonid stocks in the Columbia River basin. These data will be incorporated into run reconstruction databases and will be provided to the U.S. v. Oregon Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) for the purposes of tracking stock status of all major salmonid stocks returning to the Columbia River, including ESA-listed stocks. The data will be made available to state agencies for use in developing Biological Assessments concerning proposed fisheries in the Columbia River basin and are commonly used by the NOAA Fisheries when completing Biological Opinions regarding fisheries in the Columbia River basin.
WE Agreement Type:
Contracted
Deliverable Specification:
Preseason run size forecasts are developed annually. Data are provided to the U.S. v. Oregon TAC on status of ESA listed stocks and is summarized annually in technical reports. Annual stock assessment reports are produced and distributed to fish resource agencies throughout the basin. All resultant databases are updated annually and are used in a variety of management forums.

A PUBPROTOCOL Review, revise, and Publish protocol, study design, and methods in monitoringmethods.org 2/1/2013 1/31/2014 Active Bryce Glaser 12/5/2012 4:09:33 PM
Description: The Protocol (including temporal and spatial design) and Methods for this work element are stored at monitoringmethods.org and need to be finalized (i.e., "Published" through monitoringmethods.org), preferably prior to data collection. Preparations for contract renewals must include reviewing any previously published Protocols/Methods to ensure that they are consistent with how work will be done in any subsequent contract.
B Analyze Stock Composition 2/1/2013 1/31/2014 Concluded Bryce Glaser 12/12/2012 4:56:30 PM
Description: Age structure and/or hatchery/wild composition in combination with stock composition data will be applied to catch or escapement estimates for the purpose of estimating the age-specific stock composition for a given fishery or escapement location. These stock composition data will be used to estimate the number of each stock of fish for a given age class that were caught in an individual fishery or returned to an individual escapement area. Annual age-specific fishery catches or escapement estimates for each stock will be summarized for all fisheries or escapement areas where this stock was present to determine the total number of fish of a given stock returned to the Columbia River at a given age. Age-specific estimated returns for a given stock will be further combined to determine the total number of fish of a given stock that returned to the Columbia River in a given year. These data will be used to monitor stock status of all major salmonid stocks returning to the Columbia River, including ESA-listed stocks. Additionally, these data will be used to produce stock-specific run size forecasts for the upcoming year.
C Analyze Scale Samples 7/1/2013 11/30/2013 Concluded Bryce Glaser 12/12/2012 4:57:12 PM
Description: Scales taken from tributary and escapements will be aged by the WDFW lab for age-specific spring and fall chinook run reconstruction and forecasts. Scales taken from the mainstem Columbia commercial and sport fisheries will be aged ODFW and incorporated into the run reconstruction/forecasts.
D Analyze Data Collected From Sampling 10/1/2013 12/31/2013 Concluded Bryce Glaser 12/12/2012 4:57:52 PM
Description: Based on CWT recoveries, catch estimates, and sampling rate, expansion factors will be calculated for individual fisheries. Expansion factors will be used to convert the number of CWTs recovered for a given tag code (observed CWTs) into the total number of CWTs that were included in the catch or escapement estimate for that same tag code (expanded CWTs). Expanded CWT estimates by tag code provide the basic data required to perform run reconstruction analyses. In addition, ages derived by scale reading analysis will also be used for run reconstruction and forecasts.
