Description:In the western United States, juvenile salmon Oncorhynchus spp. and steelhead O. mykiss are especially vulnerable to streamflow depletion in the dry season. Releasing water from off-channel storage into small streams is a novel restoration strategy to offset impacts from anthropogenic flow alteration on salmonid fishes. To date, no studies have evaluated the ecological effects of small-scale flow augmentations. Here, we quantify the effects of one such augmentation project on habitat connectivity, water quality, invertebrate drift, and juvenile salmonid movement and survival.
