Notes:

  • The data here are based on the most recent status and trends data and have been reconciled with the status and trends data.
  • New Algorithm uses Historic Productivity, Current Productivity, and Historic Number of Stocks and Stock Elements (Standardized to Maximum Value of 5).
  • Current number of stocks critical or extirpated was not used to provide nearshore being scorfed on same basis as riverine watersheds.
  • Watersheds ordered by overall standardized score.

Stock codes: co=coho, ch=chinook, fc=fall chum, sc=summer chum, ep=early pink, p=pink, bt=bull trout, ct=cutthroat, ws=winter steelhead, ss=summer steelhead, so=sockeye

() indicates uncertainty about stock status and stocks in parentheses were not counted
