• Description:
  Increasing temperatures potentially threaten a variety of anadromous and freshwater fish populations. Information on distribution, movements, and behavior in relation to local conditions is critical for assessing the status of these populations, and predicting their response to the changing environment. Radio-archival tags provided site-specific information on swimming depths and river temperatures encountered by Yukon River Chinook salmon during the spawning migration in 2002-2004.
