Columbia River

Columbia Gorge dividing Washington and Oregon States. Much of the Columbia River is backwatered acting as a lake due to large hydroelectric dams. These dams have changed the natural ecology of the area. Some effects are; reductions in salmon populations and increases in invasive species.


It is intended to post and stimulate converstation revolving around intersting articles related to stream ecology, fluvial geomorphology, fisheries, and hydrology fields, and whatever else I feel like posting.
