Description:

Join us for a special edition of the “Journey Down the Clackamas” series. This webinar will feature an in-depth look at the Clackamas River Basin stream temperature monitoring and modeling project.

Drawing on over 30 years of stream temperature data and recent climate projections from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the study explores how warming scenarios could reshape thermal regimes and habitat availability in the Clackamas River Basin. Presenters Dave Bugni , Michael Krochta, Dr. Heejun Chang , and Kara Anlauf-Dunn will showcase how stream temperature models reveal the interplay of landscape features and in-stream conditions in shaping stream sensitivity to air temperature changes. Key findings include the identification of high-priority thermal refugia amongst projected reductions in suitable habitats for salmonids under future warming scenarios.

This presentation also introduces a new interactive web tool that integrates thermal and habitat metrics to support strategic conservation and restoration planning, offering a valuable resource for land and resource managers.

CRBC is thankful to our sponsor, whose generosity allows us to conduct this conference for the public free of charge:
