Columbia River Basin Passive Integrated Transponder (PIT) Tag Releases

The Columbia River Basin Passive Integrated Transponder (PIT) Tag
Releases data set provides daily PIT Tag releases by migration year of
salmon containing passive transponders detected at Columbia Basin
dams. The data set is provided courtesy of Pacific States Marine
Fisheries Commission. The PIT Tag Releases data set is featured at
the the University of Washington, School of Aquatic and Fisheries
Sciences, Columbia Basin Research, Data Access Real Time (DART)
program. DART provides an interactive data resource designed for
research and management purposes relating to the Columbia Basin salmon
populations and river environment. Currently, daily data plus historic
information dating back to 1910 is accessible online. DART focuses on
the Columbia Basin dams and fish passage. Detailed information is
brought in daily from federal, state and tribal databases to provide a
comprehensive information tool. DART generates user-specified data
files which can be saved to a user's personal directory in a variety
of formats designed to be compatible with most spreadsheet
programs. In addition, DART has graphing capabilities which allow for
the visual comparison of multiple variables on one plot. These output
formats are available for the following data resources related to fish
passage, PIT tags and the river environment.
