Description
Return to the River will describe a new ecosystem-based approach to the restoration of salmon and steelhead populations
in the Columbia River, once one of the most productive river basins for anadromous salmonids on the west coast of North America. The
approach of this work has broad applicability to all recovery efforts throughout the northern hemisphere and general applicability to
fisheries and aquatic restoration efforts throughout the world.
The Pacific Northwest is now embroiled in a major public policy debate
over the management and restoration of Pacific salmon. The outcome of the debate has the potential to affect major segments of the region's
economy - river transportation, hydroelectric production, irrigated agriculture, urban growth, commercial and sport fisheries, etc. This
debate, centered as it is on the salmon in all the rivers, has created a huge demand for information. The book will be a powerful addition
to that debate.
Audience
Fisheries managers & biologists, natural resource administrators, and river ecologists
