Evaluating models to forecast return timing and diversion rate of Fraser sockeye salmon / M.J.P. Folkes, R.E. Thomson, and R.A.S. Hourston.: Fs70-5/2017-021E-PDF
“Management of the Fraser River sockeye fishery includes a pre-season planning component that relies on the forecast of three variables that represent characteristics of the returning adult run: recruitment, migration timing to local waters, and migration entry route relative to Vancouver Island (as defined by the Northern Diversion Rate). In this paper, we evaluate the two components related to forecasting the homing migration of adult Fraser sockeye. These forecasts are based on statistical relationships between observed and modeled environmental variables and the known migratory patterns that they are assumed to influence"--Abstract, p. v.
