Coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) are a significant species of concern within the Scott River Basin and the larger Klamath River system of Northern California. Coho play important cultural, economic, and ecosystem roles. Declining water availability threatens both the habitat quality and availability for coho spawning. The purpose of this project is to determine the economic value of coho salmon in the Scott River Basin.

This proposal delivers a brief historical context on the complicated issue of water management within the Colorado River Basin. After which it addresses issues with past allocation practices. Ultimately, the paper concludes that moving forward allocations must be quantified and upheld and tribal nations and traditional ecological knowledge must be included in the decision making process.

This adaptation plan focuses on summarizing the past and present climate of the study area and utilizes graphs and charts to show change over time. After identifying key vulnerabilities to the ecosystem in question, this paper concludes that adaptation plans should include forest protection programs, utilize genetically diverse sapling plantings, and perform dedicated monitoring of site conditions.

Formally formatted to address all common sections of a standard Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), the purpose of this EIS was to examine both alternative and mitigation options for the removal of Lost Creek Dam.

This paper discusses the cultural appropriation of Native American Spirituality and looks at the methods of appropriation and their effects.

The statistical analysis performed here was done in conjunction with capstone research. The analysis searched for a relationship between adult Coho and the amount of discharge in the Scott River. The results at this stage were tentitive and presented as a scientific poster.

The purpose of this project is to help build an understanding of the conditions at the study site Colvin Timbers utilizing GIS mapping. This final poster briefly discusses methodology and results from the project.
