註釋The goal of this study is to estimate Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) abundance at river mile (RM) 34 of the mainstem Susitna River and spawning distribution among 5 Susitna River drainage management areas in 2020. A 2-event mark-recapture experiment in combination with radio telemetry will be used. Fish wheels and gillnets will be operated at RM34 to capture Chinook salmon for marking with dart-PIT tags (a dart tag with an imbedded passive integrated transponder [PIT]) and radiotelemetry tags. Recapture event sampling will occur at the Deshka River weir at RM 7 where a PIT detection array will be used. Eight radiotracking stations will be strategically placed throughout the drainage to determine when radiotagged fish move in and out of the 5 management zones. A concurrent genetics mark-recapture study will be performed using genetic samples taken from a systematic sample of all dart-PIT-tagged fish. The applied radio tags will also be used to estimate handling effects. In the event of a sport fishery, harvest sampling of axillary processes and genetic stock identification will be used to determine the proportions of non-Deshka River Chinook salmon stocks taken in 2 sections of the Deshka River.
