Using sensor fish to examine fish friendliness of flood pumps Kinnard, Hollis

Description

Hollis presented their research, “Using Sensor Fish to Examine Fish Friendliness of Flood Pumps.” This research examines the impact of fish-friendly flood pumps on juvenile salmon, with early results indicating that these pumps still cause harm to fish. The goal is to create a best practices document to help flood pump managers upgrade infrastructure to better protect salmon during their migration.
