Book Description
Spawning distribution and run timing of adult sockeye salmon were assessed in the Copper River, Alaska, using radiotelemetry techniques. The purposes were to estimate the proportions of sockeye salmon returning to major spawning areas of the Copper River (Lower Copper, Chitina, Tonsina, Klutina, Tazlina, Gulkana, and Upper Copper rivers) and to describe the stock-specific, migratory timing profiles of sockeye salmon in the Copper River at the point of capture in Baird Canyon.
