The study brings together the hydrology and geomorphic expertise of the USGS Oregon Water Science Center and fish biology expertise from USGS Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center to explore the key geomorphic controls on the fine sediment habitats supporting the larval lamprey life stage and potential overlap of native lampreys with non-native Smallmouth Bass. Findings from these efforts will be applied to identify best management practices and conservation strategies to sustain these culturally significant fishes." }, { "@type": "TextObject", "text": "The main objectives for this study include:" }, { "@type": "TextObject", "text": "Native lampreys are culturally significant fishes for tribal communities in Oregon.
