Abstract: The purpose of this agreement is to document the cooperation between the parties to address
identified knowledge gaps and synthesize current research. The outcomes of these studies will be
used to refine predictive models (e.g., Bellmore et al. 2023) that are being developed to explore
the impacts of climate change on salmon population in SEAK.
