Development and implementation of the California Coastal salmonid Monitoring Plan (CMP). Conducting spawning ground surveys to count live Chinook and coho salmon and steelhead and their nests in 1 to 4 km reaches located in streams throughout coastal Mendocino County, usually from late-November to mid-April. Operating salmonid Life Cycle Monitoring Stations (LCS), adults in and smolts out mid-November through late-May, in two streams and collaborating with our partner, Campbell Timberlands Management to operate a third to understand salmon survival and population trends. The LCS work includes capture, marking, releasing, and recapturing adult and juvenile coho salmon and steelhead. We are using some sophisticated electronic tagging and detection techniques for this work. Conducting habitat assessment during summer and fall.
