Data Management Plan (Deprecated) | ID: 30900 | Salish Sea Marine Survival (Steelhead) - Early Marine Survival of Puget Sound Steelhead

Deprecated Version
This is an outdated version of the NOAA Data Management Plan template. InPort now supports a dedicated Data Management Plan Catalog Item type, which is up-to-date with the latest NOAA DMP template. The ability to generate Data Management Plans from Data Sets will be discontinued in a future release. Please see the Data Management Plan Help Guide to learn more.

Data Management Plan

DMP Template v2.0.1 (2015-01-01)

Please provide the following information, and submit to the NOAA DM Plan Repository.

Reference to Master DM Plan (if applicable)

As stated in Section IV, Requirement 1.3, DM Plans may be hierarchical. If this DM Plan inherits provisions from a higher-level DM Plan already submitted to the Repository, then this more-specific Plan only needs to provide information that differs from what was provided in the Master DM Plan.

1. General Description of Data to be Managed

1.1. Name of the Data, data collection Project, or data-producing Program:

Salish Sea Marine Survival (Steelhead) - Early Marine Survival of Puget Sound Steelhead

Taken From: Item Identification | Title

1.2. Summary description of the data:

The primary objectives of this study are to estimate a predation rate by harbor seals on steelhead smolt in Puget Sound, and determine whether predation by harbor seals differs by region. Nisqually River steelhead will be acoustic tagged, and 12 - 18 seals will be fitted with GPS/acoustic receiver instrument packs. Tag detection capabilities will be expanded by i) monitoring harbor seals in South and Central Puget Sound and Admiralty Inlet, ii) placing stationary receivers at seal haulouts and at random locations not frequented by harbor seals, iii) conducting mobile tracking to locate tags remaining in Puget Sound after the smolt outmigration period. Seal time at depth and locations will be quantified in such a manner that estimates the amount of time seals spend at haulout locations to estimate the probability that a tag consumed by a harbor seal would be defecated near a haulout site. Data on harbor seal abundance, behavior, steelhead tag locations, and smolt abundance will be combined to estimate the predation rate and total number of smolts consumed by harbor seals.

In addition, recent fish health assays indicate high infection prevalence (87-100%) and intensity (800-2500 cysts/fish) of Nanophyetus salmonica in steelhead outmigrating from Central (Green) and South (Nisqually) Puget Sound Rivers. South and Central Puget Sound steelhead populations generally experience lower early marine survival rates than those from North Puget Sound rivers, where Nanophyetus infections in assayed steelhead were absent. High infection intensity among freshwater outmigrants could contribute to rapid mortality shortly after seawater entry. This study will use acoustic telemetry to evaluate differences in the early marine survival (near river mouth to Pacific Ocean) of specific pathogen-free (SPF) and Nanophyetus-infected Puget Sound steelhead smolts. This approach will help us understand effects of Nanophyetus infection at different stages of the steelhead smolt migration through Puget Sound.

8.4. How will the data be protected from accidental or malicious modification or deletion prior to receipt by the archive?
Discuss data back-up, disaster recovery/contingency planning, and off-site data storage relevant to the data collection

The Northwest Fisheries Science Center facilitates backup and recovery of all data and IT components which are managed by IT Operations through the capture of static (point-in-time) backup data to physical media. Once data is captured to physical media (every 1-3 days), a duplicate is made and routinely (weekly) transported to an offsite archive facility where it is maintained throughout the data's applicable life-cycle.
