| Notes | From the PNCERS Study.This paper compared 20 estuaries in Oregon and Washington. "This study demonstrates for the first time a direct link between estuarine condition and survival of salmon..." Pristine (less developed) estuaries have better fall chinook salmon survival rates. The Salmon River had the highest survival rate for fall Chinook salmon. |
