Where have all the salmon gone?

Coalition response...A major problem for juvenile salmon during their out-migration to the ocean is the array of predators waiting for them in Delta waters. Biologists have studied the striped bass and its appetite for salmon and determined that predation of salmon in the Delta is far greater than salmon salvaged at the pumps. The UC Davis/Stockholm Environmental Institute also pointed to a poor food supply in the ocean as a major factor in the dwindling numbers of salmon. Add to that the 14 tons of ammonia dumped every day into the Sacramento River leading to the Delta by the Sacramento Regional Sanitation District and you get a more complete picture of the challenges faced by out-migrating salmon.
