Impact of Spatial and Temporal Dynamics of Water Flows on Migratory Behavior of Chinook Salmon Smolts in the South Delta
Description / purpose
Funding for this study project will be use track the swimming movements of salmon smolts during migration using acoustic transmitters and detection arrays near the confluence of Old River and the San Joaquin River. Analyses will be carried out to determine swimming velocity relative to current velocity. Modeling will estimate fish distribution; fish transit times; entrainment of fish into channels of the south Delta; and alternative water export management scenarios that may result in reduced entrainment.
