Tidal channels are structurally and functionally prominent features in tidal marshes, so their restoration is central to marsh restoration. Prominent design questions in tidal marsh restoration include: How many tidal channels can a restoration site support, and thus, how many dike breaches should … Continued

While it is well appreciated that juvenile Chinook salmon rely on estuaries for rearing during juvenile migration, several information gaps hamper effective science-based restoration and population recovery. To address these gaps, biologists and managers have generally proceeded in a geographically … Continued

Barriers that prevent access to existing aquatic habitat have been identified as one of the most significant limitations to salmonid productivity in the Pacific Northwest (Shear and Steel 2006). Transportation corridors, agriculture, urbanization and other human land-use practices have diminished … Continued
