| Notes | In some places, salmon carcasses are being dumped or placed near streams in an attempt to replicate the natural streamside nutrient cycle from the days when salmon were more abundant. The authors call for more careful studies of this practice. Includes map of the Salmon River watershed showing the relationship between stream nitrogen export and red alder cover. |
