Title:

C: 157 - Nektonic species sampling-Plume & coastal OR & WA

Description:

Measure composition, distribution, and abundance of pelagic and nektonic species, including salmonids in 2013 in the Columbia River plume region.

WE Agreement Type:

Contracted

Deliverable Specification:

We will conduct one or two cruises in 2013. We have budgeted 12 days of ship time for 2013. This will be conducted either as one 'normal' length cruise or two 6-day cruises. This research will directly measure and quantify juvenile salmon abundance and distribution and provide samples to assess marine growth (both somatic and bioenergetic) as features that can be related to physical and biological processes in the Columbia River plume and associated ocean environment.

Important marine bio/physical conditions that will be measured and compared with salmonid metrics include: 1) oceanographic conditions, 2) phytoplankton standing stock, 3) salmonid food habits and prey fields (zooplankton biomass and species composition).

A	EC	Environmental compliance requirements complete	1/20/2013	4/1/2013	Concluded	Kym Jacobson	10/22/2012 8:14:56 PM
		Description: On-the-ground work associated with this work element cannot proceed until this milestone is complete. Milestone is complete when final documentation is received from BPA environmental compliance staff (completion can be based on pre-existing environmental documentation from BPA).
B	PUBPROTOCOL	Review, revise, and Publish protocol, study design, and methods in monitoringmethods.org	1/20/2013	4/1/2013	Concluded	Kym Jacobson	10/22/2012 8:14:56 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.
