We will develop a set of linked models to help predict the effects of climate change on rivers and endangered species. These will include watershed- and reach-scale models to predict streamflow, water temperatures, and other fish habitat metrics under various climatic scenarios for the reaches used by species listed under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), plus a combined bioenergetics and life-cycle model (to be done by the U.S. Geological Survey [USGS]) to assess the impact of these factors on fish growth, reproduction, and survival. We propose to test the model framework at a site on the Methow River, Washington, to explore additional opportunities for collaboration and model development.

Description of Work USGS will conduct monthly samples of benthic invertebrates, zooplankton, and water quality as well as seasonal sampling of fish and fish diets. This project supports lower trophic sampling in Lake Erie and understanding food webs. An emphasis will be collecting samples from a nearshore to offshore design.

This research focuses on assessing large scale tidal marsh restoration for the carbon co-benefits of foodweb support and carbon sequestration potential. By assessing wildlife co-benefits with carbon accounting, this project will link traditional objectives of protecting, restoring, and managing diverse wetlands to support habitats and species with carbon dynamics and sequestration. This study addresses interconnected C processes and dynamics including: * Identify carbon sources that support Chinook foodwebs * Compare to the carbon sources that are stored in peat * Determining Net Ecosystem Carbon Balance within in a reference and restored marsh * Evaluate land use and vegetation change over time * Assessing...
