The In-Season Salmon Reporting Service is a RESTful web service that reports expanded weights and counts for WCGOP observed discarded salmon species from the Catch Shares sector. Data is available for 2015 through current year.
The Pacific Coastal Salmon Recovery Fund (PCSRF) database serves as a project and performance metrics database and stores salmon and steelhead-related project reports from grantees located in Alaska, Washington, Idaho, Oregon, and California.
Although decreasing length at maturity has been observed in some Alaska salmon populations, the generality of this trend is poorly understood. This study was undertaken to determine whether this pattern holds for multiple species of salmon from a small watershed in Southeast Alaska (Auke Creek), and if so, what abiotic and biotic factors are contributing to this phenomenon.
Pelagic fish and jellyfish were sampled using a trawl net towed in the upper 20 m of the eastern Bering Sea during the Alaska Fisheries Science Centers’ Bering Arctic Subarctic Integrated Surveys (BASIS) during late summer, 2002–2016. Stations were approximately 30 nautical miles apart and a trawl was towed for approximately 30 minutes. Area swept was estimated from horizontal net opening and distance towed.
