- Title
Oceanic, riverine, and genetic influences on spring chinook salmon migration timing.

- Abstract
The article presents a study which investigates the impact of oceanic, riverine and genetic influences on the spring migration timing of chinook salmon on the Columbia River in Oregon. The study developed a model which has genetic and environmental factors to forecast the chinook salmons' mean run timing. It shows that the mean run timing is influenced by genetic and environmental components from the arrival timing of male salmons before the adults and the advancement or delay of run timing.
