Book Description
During 2015 the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF&G) conducted salmon enumeration projects on the Chena and Delta Clearwater rivers in the Tanana River drainage. Enumeration projects on the Salcha and Goodpaster rivers were conducted by Bering Sea Fishermen's Association and Tanana Chiefs Conference, respectively, of which this report serves as an archive. Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha escapements for the Salcha and Goodpaster rivers were estimated using tower-counting techniques and similarly for the Chena River with the addition of dual-frequency identification sonar (DIDSON) methodology to account for days missed due to high water. Coho salmon O. kisutch escapement in the Delta Clearwater River was estimated by a visual boat survey at peak escapement. Counting towers on the Chena, Salcha, and Goodpaster rivers operated from 30 June until 6 August, 12 July until 9 August, and 9 to 30 July, respectively. High, muddy water due to inclement weather precluded acquiring counts during 3-7, 21-25, and 28 July, and 1-6 August for the Chena River, and 1-11 July for the Salcha River. Estimated Chinook salmon escapement for the Chena River was 6,291 (SE=169). Five-hundred ninety one Chinook salmon were collected during the carcass survey to estimate the age, sex, and length composition of the escapement. Dominant age classes were age 1.2 (44%) for males and age 1.4 (87%) for females. Estimated proportion of females was 0.55 (SE=0.02) and the proportion adjusted for gender-bias was 0.39 (SE=0.07). Mean length of females in the Chena River escapement was 809 mm and mean length of males was 674 mm. Chum salmon escapement for the Chena River was 8,620 (SE=153) and because counting operations ceased during the chum run, is considered incomplete. The peak escapement count of coho salmon escapement in the Delta Clearwater River on 22 October was 19,553. Chinook salmon escapement for the Salcha River was 6,879 (SE=1,617) and 2,353 (SE=97) for the Goodpaster River.

Book Description
During 2016 the Alaska Department of Fish and Game conducted salmon enumeration projects on the Chena, Salcha, and Delta Clearwater rivers in the Tanana River drainage. Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha escapements for the Chena and Salcha rivers were estimated using tower-counting techniques with the addition of sonar (DIDSON and ARIS) methodology as a secondary means of enumeration when high-water events precluded visual counts. A Bayesian mixture model was used to apportion species from the sonar files. Coho salmon Oncorhynchus kisutch escapement in the Delta Clearwater River was estimated by a visual boat survey at peak escapement. The counting towers operated on 26 June for the Chena River and 26 June-3 July and 11-17 July for the Salcha River until high, muddy water precluded visual counts. Sonars could not be operated due to flooding from 19 July-5 August for the Chena River and during 19-26 July and 31 July-5 August for the Salcha River. A Bayesian hierarchical model was used to estimate salmon abundance for days when the sonars were not operating. Estimated Chinook salmon escapement for the Chena River was 6,665 (SE = 363) and 2,675 (SE = 313) for the Salcha River. Due to flooding and sonar placement, the abundance estimate for the Salcha River represents a minimum. During the carcass surveys 388 and 503 Chinook salmon were collected from the Chena and Salcha rivers respectively to estimate the age, sex, and length composition of the escapement. Dominant age classes were age 1.2 (0.43) for males and age 1.3 (0.14) for females for the Chena River and 1.2 (0.37) for males and age 1.3 (0.17) for females for the Salcha River. Estimated proportion of females was 0.22 (SE = 0.02) and the proportion adjusted for gender-bias was 0.16 (SE = 0.03) for the Chena River and 0.38 (SE = 0.02) and gender-bias adjusted was 0.33 (SE = 0.07) for the Salcha River. Mean length of females in the Chena River escapement was 771 mm and 629 mm for males and the mean length of females in the Salcha River escapement was 746 mm and 631 mm for males. Chum salmon Oncorhynchus keta escapement for the Chena and Salcha rivers was 6,493 (SE = 427) and 2,897 (SE = 177), respectively. Because counting operations ceased during the chum run, these counts were considered incomplete. The peak escapement count of coho salmon escapement in the Delta Clearwater River on 26 October was 6,767.

Book Description
During 2018, the Alaska Department of Fish and Game conducted salmon enumeration projects on the Chena, Salcha, and Delta Clearwater Rivers in the Tanana River drainage. Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha escapements for the Chena and Salcha Rivers were estimated using tower-counting techniques with the addition of sonar (DIDSON and ARIS) apportionment, interpolation, and a Bayesian hierarchical model as a means of enumeration when high-water events precluded visual counts. The Chena River counting tower and sonars operated from 27 June until 10 August, and the final escapement estimate was 5,947 (SE = 226) Chinook salmon. The adjusted sex composition was 0.63 (SE = 0.07) male and 0.37 (SE = 0.07) female (n = 348). The dominant age class was 1.3 for males (41% of total escapement) and 1.4 for females (28% of total escapement). The Salcha River counting tower and sonars operated from 27 June until 10 August and the final escapement estimate was 4,195 (SE = 205) Chinook salmon. The adjusted sex composition was 0.65 (SE = 0.07) male and 0.35 (SE = 0.07) female (n=504). Like the Chena River, the dominant age class was 1.3 for males (31% of total escapement) and 1.4 for females (35% of total escapement). Incomplete chum salmon Oncorhynchus keta escapements for the Chena and Salcha Rivers were estimated to be 13,084 (SE = 1705) and 39,996 (SE = 8,095), respectively. Coho salmon Oncorhynchus kisutch escapement in the Delta Clearwater River was estimated as 2,884 fish by a visual boat survey at peak escapement on 7 November.

Languages : en
Pages : 63

Book Description
The 2015 Anchor River Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) escapement (10,241) exceeded the sustainable escapement goal (SEG) range of 3,800–10,000 Chinook salmon. Escapement was more than twice the average of recent low-productivity years (2009–2014) and was more similar to the large escapements from 2003 to 2005. Some preseason emergency orders that restricted the inriver and nearby marine sport fisheries were rescinded as a result of the unexpectedly strong run. Escapement was based on combined counts collected on the north and south forks of the Anchor River using weirs fitted with an underwater video system in the passage chute. The midpoint of the combined Chinook salmon run was 15 June. Daily Chinook salmon counts on the south fork and average south fork river stage were significantly correlated. Age composition was determined from samples collected during weekly beach seining downstream of the weirs. The dominant age class was ocean age 3 (44.6% SE 2.6%). No significant difference was detected between the length of ocean-age-3 males and females, but there was a significant difference in the average length of the sexes for ocean-age-2 and ocean-age-4 fish. There was no significant difference between the sex composition collected from beach seine samples and that observed at the video weirs, but there was a significant difference in the proportion of jacks captured in the beach seine and that observed at the video weirs.

Book Description
Counting tower techniques were used to estimate Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha escapement at the Gulkana River for 2013, 2014 and 2015. The counting tower was located in the mainstem Gulkana River about 2.5 rkm upstream of the West Fork Gulkana River confluence. The counting tower was operational for all 3 years for the entire Chinook salmon run and a portion of the sockeye salmon O. nerka run. The estimated escapement of Chinook salmon was 3,936 (SE = 215; 95% CI = 3,515-4,357) in 2013, 3,478 (SE = 271; 95% CI = 2,947-4,009) in 2014, and 3,738 (SE = 251; 95% CI = 3,246-4,230) in 2015. These numbers do not represent total inriver escapement, just passage above the counting tower site. The date of 50th percentile passage of Chinook salmon varied from 14 July in 2013 to 5 July in 2015. The estimated escapement of sockeye salmon during the counting tower's operational period was 48,024 (SE = 1,834; 95% CI = 44,429-51,619) in 2013, 27,186 (SE = 1,236; 95% CI = 24,763-29,609) in 2014 and 24,624 (SE = 970; 95% CI = 22,723-26,525) in 2015.
