Late-season mortality during migration of radio-tagged adult sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) in the Columbia River (2005, background): “Declines have been attributed primarily to development of the Columbia River for hydroelectric power, overharvest, habitat loss, and hatcheries (Raymond 1988; National Research Council 1996; Ruckelshaus et al. 2002).”

Habitat triage for exploited fishes: Can we identify essential “Essential Fish Habitat?” (2005, background): “…demise of fish populations is clear (e.g., Jackson et al., 2001; Pauly and Maclean, 2003), it is also apparent that a number of other human activities have contributed to and may be preventing the recovery of fish stocks (Ruckelshaus et al., 2002; Hilborn et al., 2003).”
How Much Is Enough? The Recurrent Problem of Setting Measurable Objectives in Conservation (2005, background): “The intent is to develop a watershedspecific (i.e., population-specific) plan with measurable objectives for each of the four major threats to salmon recovery (i.e., habitat, hydropower dams, harvest, and hatchery management; see Ruckelshaus et al. 2002a).”
Slow dam passage in adult columbia river salmonids associated with unsuccessful migration : delayed negative effects of passage obstacles or condition-dependent mortality? (2007, background): “Construction of the Columbia–Snake hydrosystem has been identified as one of several factors causing the decline and listing of more than a dozen salmon and steelhead evolutionary significant units (species, subspecies, geographic races, or populations considered as separate entities for conservatio”
