Collaborative Research on Oregon Ocean Salmon

Collaborative Research on Oregon Ocean Salmon Collaborative Chinook Salmon Research Project (https://fp.pacificfishtrax.org)

Project CROOS is a collaborative research project utilizing genetic markers called microsatellites developed by the GAPS (Genetic Analysis of Pacific Salmonids) consortium to identify fine-scale stock-specific patterns of Chinook Salmon off the coast of Oregon. Project CROOS works with the Oregon commercial fishing fleet to collect Chinook fin samples during the commercial fishing season that are

sent to the Hatfield Marine Science Center for genetic stock identification. This information is then uploaded into the Pacific Fish Trax database and can be visualized on the public portal (https://fp.pacificfishtrax.org). Project CROOS is a collaboration with the following organizations: West Coast Salmon Genetic Stock Identification Collaboration (WCS-GSI), Oregon State University (OSU), Oregon's commercial fishing fleet, Community Seafood Initiative (CSI), Oregon Salmon Commission (OSC), Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW), Washington Troller's Association (WTA), California Salmon Council (CSC) and Advanced Research Corporation (ARC).

The CROOS 2012 sampling season has started! Out of 365 Chinook samples genotyped so far 53.4% are Central Valley Fall stock, 12.6% are Upper Columbia summer and fall stock, 5% are Mid Oregon coast stock, 4.4% are Tules and 2.5% are Klamath stock. This data is based on total catch rates and does not factor in fishing effort. Keep updated on the CROOS project here and on the pacific fish trax website https://fp.pacificfishtrax.org/. The first inseason update will be post by this Friday.

For help in logging in, please contact Nancy Fitzpatrick (nancy @ oregonsalmon.org) if you are an Oregon fisherman or Sarah Bates(sarahjanebates @ gmail.com)if you are a California fisherman.
