Chignik Inseason Genetics - Phase 1
| Synopsis: | Two distinct runs of sockeye salmon in the Chignik River watershed (Black Lake early run and Chignik Lake late run) provide a crucial cultural and food resource for five subsistence communities. This project will collect and analyze genetic information both inseason and postseason to determine the run timing through the Chignik River weir of early- and late-run Chignik sockeye salmon. Two years of samples will be processed postseason to examine the stock composition of the run components through time. In the third year, inseason estimates will be made to assess the utility of this data in management of the fishery. |
