Description
Summary:Relative marine mammal predation mortality (left column) and total mortality (including fishing and predation mortality) (right column) on Returning spawners Chinook salmon originating from the Columbia River and the Washington, Oregon, and California coast (i.e. CRWORC) from 1979 to 2020. The graphs are presented for CRWORC SP (top row), CRWORC SU (middle row), and CRWORC FA (bottom row).
