Fundable only if response is adequate
Aug 2, 2002
Comment:
A response is needed. The sponsors propose to investigate utilization of shoreline habitats in riverine sections of the mainstem Columbia and Snake Rivers by juvenile lamprey and use this information to extrapolate habitat use and restoration potential to larger spatial scales. The ISRP believes this research is fundamental to lamprey recovery in the basin. The proposal is well prepared and reflects the input of previous reviews by the working group on lamprey and the previous submission to the FWP. The sponsors are particularly well suited to conduct the research.The research is worthwhile, but more methodological detail is needed. What specific habitat criteria will be used to classify habitats as having high, medium, or low potential for lamprey rearing and spawning (page 6)? How will spawning habitat and its use by adult lamprey be quantified? How large of an area will be sampled at each sampling site? To what water depth will sampling occur? How will abundance be quantified? Describe in more detail how ANOVA will be used to assess relationships between habitat and abundance. Is a multiple regression approach suitable for defining these relationships? Will stratified random sampling be incorporated into the study and, if so, what will be the sampling design?
More detail is needed in characterizing how the landscape scale evaluation will be accomplished. For example, how will the site-specific information gathered in this work be scaled up or linked to the channel and reach level characteristics such as channel form, gradient, and discharge? What are the "geologic features" that will be used to in the landscape-scale extrapolation? How will historical habitats be identified?
Comment:
Project 35008 should be funded first to coordinate lamprey research and monitoring activities, and determine the appropriate sequence for initiating new projects. Funding could be initiated in the outyears.Comment:
Fundable. We disagree with CBFWA's "recommended action" designation and believe the proposal should be higher priority. This research is fundamental to lamprey recovery in the basin, and this project is likely to contribute substantially to understanding mainstem rearing opportunities for juvenile lamprey. The sponsors propose to investigate utilization of shoreline habitats in riverine sections of the mainstem Columbia and Snake Rivers by juvenile lamprey and use this information to extrapolate habitat use and restoration potential to larger spatial scales. The proposal is well prepared and reflects the input of previous reviews by the working group on lamprey and the previous submission to the FWP. The sponsors are particularly well suited to conduct the research. The response adequately addressed the ISRP's concerns about additional methodological detail.If funded, this project should be coordinated with other monitoring projects to ensure compatibility of objectives, common methods, and protocols. This coordination could be accomplished under the favorably reviewed CBFWA proposal #35033.
