Fisheries Research and Management

Scientists of LGL have fisheries expertise working with:

• Anadromous Species (adult & juvenile salmon, Pacific lamprey)
• Marine Species (halibut, rockfish, herring, tuna, coral reef species)
• Freshwater Species (trout, white sturgeon)
• Invertebrates (crabs, bivalves)
• Aquatic Habitats (freshwater & marine)

Objectives of our research programs commonly include:

• Distribution, Abundance & Population Dynamics
• Design & Implementation of Harvest Management Plans
• Impact Assessments & Mitigation Strategies
• Habitat Enhancement, Restoration & Management
• Run Reconstruction Analyses
• Capacity Building
• Analysis & Review of Complex Fisheries Issues

Specialized Methodology:

• Radio-telemetry, Acoustic Telemetry, 3-D Analysis
• Selective Fishing Methods (fishwheels, weirs & various net-capture techniques)
• Computer Programming & Simulation Modeling
• Advanced Statistical Analysis
• GIS Analysis
• Hydroacoustics
• Aerial Surveys
• Marking Techniques
• Video Monitoring
