Juvenile Salmon Dietary Investigation
Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson

AERC provided project management for the Alaska Center for Conservation Science (ACCS) as they conducted a study of juvenile salmon diets in various streams on base. The project draws on a similar study of juvenile chinook salmon diets in the Yukon River, conducted jointly by AERC and ACCS. By collecting and identifying the stomach contents of young salmon during the freshwater stages of their lifecycle, the team provided data to better understand and manage JBER salmon habitat.

Project goals: Provide specialists to study the diets of juvenile Pacific salmon in Alaska, document the type and quantity of foods used by juvenile Pacific salmon in three JBER streams, and provide reports to JBER wildlife managers including recommendations for improvements.
