Salmon run

science to the land. The project failed in a way that the whole amount of land could not fully restored and the outcome revealed poor habitat. One billion dollars wasted on a foiled cause. After all the money wasted and countless hours worked, the salmon still can’t venture down the stream. The five year drought caused major delays in this project, such as delayed currents. The upcoming El Nino will support the river with well-overdue needed water. My original viewpoint on the subject remains…

of kilometers inland: Pacific salmon. October's Pacific rains create prime spawning conditions for wild Pacific salmon. It's also a banner month for the towering trees of British Columbia's coastal temperate rainforests. However, you might be surprised that it's the salmon, not the rain, that make it such a great month for the trees. This story of salmon, bears and trees illustrates the interconnected web of life, and has aptly spawned the name "The Pacific salmon forest". Right now, millions…

DamNation Ben Knight’s DamNation depicts a conflict between Earth First! activists, hydroelectricity companies, Native Americans (particularly the Elwha tribe), and the federal government. The conflict is over several finite resources such as the salmon population, hydroelectric power, and ecosystem health. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that the conflict represented in the film is a clear example of the “Tragedy of the Commons” (TOTC). This is due to the similarities between the…

waterfowl, ospreys, hawks, falcons, and eagles. Salmon, steelhead, shad, sturgeon, and a variety of warmwater species are the most common fish. The abundance of salmon in the river was noted by early explorers to the region and, by 1881, 30 canneries along the river supplied world markets with salmon, especially Great Britain. The salmon were caught in nets, traps, and wheels. However, from a record 21,500 tons of caught salmon in 1883, the salmon catch in the river has declined about ten…

cleanliness and well-being. Furthermore, I would ensure that little to no drainage from the rainwater drains flows into the smaller creeks of the watershed as there is possible pollution from nearby urban areas, such as oil on roads and other possible run-off which can harm the biodiversity in small stream ecosystems. Instead, I would drain these pipes into larger creeks and streams where there is more water to dilute the possible…

The River Restoration Project was started due to the shortage of water and salmon. I side with the article "River Restoration Project Offers a Sprinkling of Hope", written by Daniel Weintraub, because I believe the San Joaquin River should be restored. Though Weintraub has not been in the newspaper industry for as long as Bill McEwen has, he has worked with more companies doing different things, giving him more experience. Weintraub has worked with three different newspaper companies including…

The John West Salmon “Bear Fight” is a humorous advertisement and appeals to the audience as it includes an unpredictable narrative, a ridiculous fight, and an amusing slogan. The advertisement starts off with a mock style documentary where the bears are catching the freshest salmon. This then queues John West to run to the bear, in which the narrator unexpectedly says “which is something we at John West want.” The unexpected turn with the addition to what the narrator says really grabs the…

been violating the treaties by installing culverts that do not allow salmon to move freely up streams to spawning grounds. Our salmon develop in freshwater, making a journey out to sea, returning to freshwater to lay and fertilize eggs. The life cycle of salmon has been occurring for thousands of years. Salmon are a living link to our ecosystem and our future. Culverts are not allowing for safe and accessible passage for salmon. In 2007 the courts decided that culverts did, in fact,…
