Purpose

The primary goal of this research was to identify the mechanistic processes driving sub-adult Delta Smelt distribution and movements before and during upstream dispersal and migration, in particular when Delta Smelt are vulnerable to water project entrainment. This was a short-term study to address very specific research questions. It would be inappropriate to use the data beyond the scope of that effort.
