Description
Summary:Long-term monitoring of returning adult Chinook salmon ( Oncorhynchus tshawytscha ) abundance on the Copper River, AK, has been conducted using fishwheels and two-sample mark-recapture methods since 2003. This data archiveis fromfrom the 2018-2021 field seasons. The annual objective was to estimate the inriver abundance of Copper River Chinook salmon such that the estimate was within 25% of the true abundance 95% of the time. This data represents annual catch, bycatch, tagging site data, recapture site data, session data, QC check tables,CPUE, mark-recapture matrix, mark-recapture stratification tables, effort, and daily catch matrix.
