The effects of potential parental egg production and
environmental factors on year-class strength (YCS) of petrale sole
(Eopsetta jordani) were investigated in two areas off Oregon and
Washington (Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission areas 2B: 42°
50'N - 44°18'N, and 3A: 45° 46'N - 47°20'N). Indices of YCS based on...

This survey was part of an extensive inventory of stream habitat conditions for anadromous salmonids (Oncorhynchus spp.) throughout the Columbia River Basin. The survey systematically
