Different scientists often get different effect sizes (results) due to the analytical decisions they make. What can we learn from being aware of this issue? Jon Walter explores in this week's California Waterblog entry: 💡⏬ https://t.co/N2bGRp8O8F

By Jonathan A. Walter, UC Davis Center for Watershed Sciences Research results can depend not only on the data itself, but on how they are analyzed.1 This is importantly different from how stakehol…

I am so proud of Rypel Lab alum Lauren Hitt for publishing this important paper in @ESAEcosphere on natality of Putah Creek salmon: https://t.co/FzRJJXDgnL A press release was published by @ucdavis on it this morning https://t.co/kF5oL9dVUb

A UC Davis study confirms Putah Creek origin salmon for first time, marking a win for creek restoration and wild salmon, and providing hope for other degraded streams around the globe.

📢 And also very happy to publicly announce we now have scientific evidence Putah Creek has a sizable population of natal Chinook salmon! The population of these fish is growing and was founded, perhaps ironically, by hatchery strays 💚🐟🎏

This is a great look at how this winter is shaping up, and what it will mean for #cawater this year, via @ezraromero @KQED. Warming winters mean less snowpack, which complicates reservoir management. W/quotes from PPIC's Jeff Mount and Greg Gartrell. https://t.co/TtMBeesR6n

At this point, California is set to have a near-average Sierra Nevada snowpack, and at least three more storms this season will likely give it a necessary boost.

Putah Creek is one of the greatest env'tl comeback stories I've been a part of. And as Ethan's new paper in @ESAApplications shows (summarized in blog 👇) - the proof is in the pudding/data. And with new models, we can learn how to make env'tl flows/mgmt even better still 💪🏞️🐟
