Abstract:Hubbard Glacier is expected to dam Russell Fiord and cause glacial flooding of the lower 20 km of the Situk River near Yakutat, Alaska. To determine probable effects of the flooding on juvenile salmonids Oncorhynchus spp., two rotary‐screw traps were used to estimate smolt yield inside and outside the predicted flood zone. Traps were fished from April to mid‐August 1990: one at the predicted upstream limit of flooding and the other 3 km upstream from the river mouth. Every week, a sample of each salmonid speci… Show more
“…We used a rotary-screw trap to capture juvenile trout out-migrating from Boundary Creek from March 16 to August 23, 1999(Thedinga et al 1994Kennen et al 1994). The trap was located in the SW ¼ of Section 11, Township 65 N., Range 2 W, just downstream of the United States Geological Survey (USGS) gauging station.…”

“…These fish were then marked with a caudal clip, moved 250 m upstream of the screw trap, and released to estimate trap efficiency (Thedinga et al 1994). All other species were weighed and measured and released downstream of the trap.…”

“…Solutions Inc., Corvallis, Oregon, was used to capture migrating salmonids (Figure 3). Similar traps have been used to capture migrating juvenile salmonid species in New York and Alaska (Kennen et al 1994;Thedinga et al 1994). The screw trap used in the spring and fall consists of a 2.1 m diameter-trapping cone supported by a metal A-frame and two six-meter pontoons that provided flotation.…”
“…Variance of each weekly $ N was estimated by the one-sample bootstrap method (Efron and Tibshirani 1986;Thedinga et al 1994) with 1,000 iterations. Preliminary analysis indicated that when there were less than 10 recaptured fish in a week, bootstrap variance estimates were greatly expanded.…”

We determined migration timing and abundance of juvenile spring chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha and juvenile steelhead/rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss using rotary screw traps on four streams in the Grande Ronde River basin during the
