Slide 11 of 20
Notes:
A few slides back, I showed a simple demographic PVA model. The next step is to add linkages with hydrology. First, we use a Markov model to generate future hydrology. Next we quantify differences in river habitat from the perspective of sturgeon in each type of hydrologic year.
This slide shows some of the ways that we hypothesize the river environment influences survival and reproduction of sturgeon. Note that these factors can also depend on attributes of the fish (I.e. size) and the river segment.
The next slides will elaborate on these white boxes.
