Life cycle modeling framework for Sacramento River winter-run Chinook salmon

"In this document, we describe a strategy for quantitatively evaluating how Federal Central Valley Project (CVP) and California State Water Project (SWP) management actions affect Central Valley Chinook salmon populations. Examples of management actions include changes in water project operations, addition or removal of barriers, and a variety of habitat restoration initiatives. The analytical framework consists of linking and applying hydrological, hydraulic, water quality, and salmon population models." Noble Hendrix, Anne Criss, Eric Danner, Correigh M.
