• Description:
  Information on green sturgeon occurrence in Puget Sound and the Strait of Juan de Fuca is needed to ensure that potentially harmful human actions do not impact this species, particularly the southern distinct population segment (DPS), which is listed as threatened under the U.S. Endangered Species Act. We reviewed acoustic detection data from 2002 to 2019 for incidence of acoustically tagged green sturgeon in these areas.
