- Abstract:
- Adult salmon do not feed during the spawning migration and rely on lipid and protein stores for energy to swim upstream and spawn. Behavior during migration, the rate at which energy is depleted, and ultimately reproductive success may be affected by river conditions (temperature and flow) and dam operations (e.g., spill, proportion of powerhouse flow, etc.) occurring during the spawning migration. Adult Chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, must pass eight hydroelectric dams and reservoirs and migrate over 1000 river kilometers to reach spawning areas in the South Fork Salmon River in central Idaho. The goal of this study was to determine relationships between estimates of energy use, migration time, and reproductive success of adult Chinook salmon.
