The study reported herein was conducted for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Portland District (USACE) by researchers at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW), National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), University of Washington (UW), and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS). The goal of the study was to evaluate the ecological benefits of restoration actions for juvenile salmon in the lower Columbia River and estuary (LCRE; rkm 0–234). This multi-year study (2011–2018) addresses the ecological benefits of restoration actions at multiple spatial scales over time. The spatial scales include the 1) site scale as a result of an individual project, 2) landscape scale as a result of multiple restoration actions located within a ~50-km segment of the LCRE, and 3) estuary scale as a result of the cumulative effects of multiple restoration actions estuary-wide.
