Hood, W.G. 2013. Presentation to the Salmon Recovery Conference (March 15, 2013), Vancouver, Washington.

Notes

  • Summarizes work to date in developing a reference model for natural equilibrium channel geometry in Puget Sound tidal marsh (with a focus on river delta]]
  • Indicates that channels across Puget Sound scale well to tidal marsh area.
  • Suggests that increased tidal range increases channel density.
  • Suggests that larger sites may provide a non-linear increase in channel length, suggesting that large restoration efforts are more ecologically and economically efficient in providing fish benefit.
