The first graph (left) shows the relative predation mortality of marine mammals on coho salmon Returning spawners predicted by the model between 1979 and 2020. The second graph (right) shows the predicted total mortality Z (thick purple line, includes fishing and predation mortality) for this group from 1979 to 2020.
