• Updated status of federally listed ESUs of West Coast salmon and steelhead (2005, methodology): “Ford et al. (2001) describes the results of applying the population definition and criteria provided in McElhany et al. (2000) to current Upper Columbia River spring-run Chinook salmon production.”
• THE PACIFIC SALMON WARS: What Science Brings to the Challenge of Recovering Species (2002, background): “For salmon ESUs, populations are defined based on their degree of relative demographic independence so that viability can be evaluated using single-population viability analysis (McElhany et al. 2000).”
• Synchronization and portfolio performance of threatened salmon (2010, background): “Indeed, habitat, genetic, and phenotypic diversity within and among populations have been included as a component of goals used in management plans for Pacific salmon in the United States and Canada (McElhany et al. 2000; DFO 2005).”
• A metapopulation perspective for salmon and other anadromous fish (2007, background): “However, the frequency of such dispersal events and the relation with distance between populations are not well known, especially for wild populations, and vary greatly between species, regions and spatial scales (Quinn 1993; McElhany et al. 2000 and references therein; Jonsson et al. 2003).”
• Status review update for Pacific salmon and steelhead listed under the Endangered Species Act : Pacific Northwest (2011, methodology): “In particular in 2000, NMFS published guidelines for developing viability (recovery) criteria for Pacific salmon (McElhany et al. 2000) and launched a series of regional technical recovery teams (TRTs) to develop viability criteria for each listed ESU/DPS (see http://www.nwfsc.noaa.gov/trt…”
• Lost Watersheds: Barriers, Aquatic Habitat Connectivity, and Salmon Persistence in the Willamette and Lower Columbia River Basins (2006, methodology): “We chose to use these estimated scores, rather than estimates of population growth rate (k) alone, because of variability in quality, temporal extent, and spatial extent of data used to calculate k (McElhany et al. 2000, 2003).”
• Effects of the federal Columbia River Power System on salmonid populations (2005, background): “NOAA Fisheries Service defines a viable salmonid population as “an independent population of any Pacific salmonid (genus Oncorhynchus) that has a negligible risk of extinction due to threats from demographic variation, local environmental variation, and genetic diversity changes over a 100-year time”
• Population genetics, conservation and evolution in salmonids and other widely cultured fishes: some perspectives over six decades (2004, background): “Indeed, the status of the ecosystem is an important component of the recovery processes under the ESA (Hard et al., 1995; McElhany et al., 2000) and is gaining recognition as the appropriate basis for fishery management in general (Latour et al., 2003).”
• INVITED REVIEW: What is a population? An empirical evaluation of some genetic methods for identifying the number of gene pools and their degree of connectivity (2006, background): “For practical as well as biological reasons, ‘populations’ are natural focal units for conservation and management (McElhany et al. 2000; Beissinger and McCullough 2002), and identification of population boundaries can have far-reaching management (and legal)”
• A LARGE-SCALE, MULTISPECIES STATUS ASSESSMENT: ANADROMOUS SALMONIDS IN THE COLUMBIA RIVER BASIN (2003, background): “Because recovery-plan ning efforts depend on estimates of the status of pop ulations, it is critical that demographically independent populations be defined (McElhany et al. 2000).”
• Effective Population Size and Genetic Conservation Criteria for Bull Trout (2001, background): “(McElhaney et al. 2000) and bull trout Salvelinus confluentus (USFWS 1998).”
• Effects of fire on fish populations: landscape perspectives on persistence of native fishes and nonnative fish invasions (2003, background): “An oft-used definition is “any relatively discrete event in time that disrupts ecosystem, community, or population structure and changes resources, substrate availability, or the physical environment” (Pickett and White 1985).”
• Salmonid inbreeding: a review (2002, background): “The available evidence for genetic and phenotypic diversity of salmonids at the watershed scale (Taylor, 1991; McElhany et al., 2000), when combined with their precise homing to natal streams, provides ample opportunity for inbreeding to occur.”
• Synthesis, part of a Special Feature on Pathways to Resilient Salmon Ecosystems Evolutionary History, Habitat Disturbance Regimes, and Anthropogenic Changes: What Do These Mean for Resilience of Pacific Salmon Populations? (2009, methodology): “However, these factors have been covered elsewhere (McElhany et al. 2000, Bottom et al. 2005, McClure et al. 2008).”
• Integrating genetic data into management of marine resources: how can we do it better? (2008, background): “In one framework that has been adopted to guide recovery planning for ESAlisted Pacific salmon (McElhany et al. 2000), populations are considered demographically independent if the level of immigration from other populations is low enough that it does not appreciably affect extinction risk on a 100-”
