Abstract Excerpt:
Salmon are an important natural, economic, and cultural resource for many people across the northern Pacific Rim, including all five North Pacific Anadromous Fish Commission (NPAFC) member nations. Monitoring and understanding the status of salmon stocks is critical to the management and conservation of this shared resource, especially within the context of a changing and increasingly variable environment that these stocks interact in (e.g., ocean warming and ocean acidification). It is unclear what the future holds for our salmon populations, but we need to think about, and prepare for, the inevitable changes.
