home to the waters where they were born, bringing with them a pulse of nutrients that helps drive stream and forest ecosystems. From old-growth trees to aquatic insects, hundreds of species rely on the large amount of marine-derived nutrients that salmon provide.
As salmon numbers have declined throughout the Pacific Northwest, this important ecological resource has been lost from many forest and river environments in the region. It’s now estimated that only 3-7% of the nutrients salmon deliver make it back into freshwater
environments.<br>

and at scales rarely observed, our connection with forest biodiversity and the role it plays in nurturing our well-being often goes completely unnoticed.”

<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">It’s an odd, disturbing feeling – watching populations of native fish species collapse and then disappear. Sometimes it happens quickly, other times it’s a series of slowstep change events. The end result is the same though
– smaller populations, extinctions, less biodiversity. We put up a little fight, and occasionally have moderate success. But by and large, the overall trend is down, the pace of change quickening, and it is relentless. We’ve watched it over our careers, and
maybe some of you have too. Either as biologists or water professionals, or perhaps as long-time readers of this blog. This summer has been no different. It has been an avalanche of stories, all with variations on this theme. Here, we provide a synopsis of
some recent events, along with wider thoughts on what watching this happen means. The following stories are by no means comprehensive, so if there are additional items we missed, feel free to discuss and link to them in the comments below.

If you’ve been lucky enough to spend time on the Trinity River lately, you will notice a plethora of brassy-green colored dragonflies hovering above the river fervently darting to and fro. The species you are most likely viewing is the common green darner Anax
junius. Common is in it’s name, and that is certainly the case, for this ancient yet abundant species that has been on the earth for over 300 million years, that’s even before the dinosaurs!

Join us on Wednesday, September 25 at 6 PM at Trinity County Brewing Company for Science on Tap, featuring a presentation from the Watershed Research and Training Center. This month, we’ll explore the critical role that meadows in the Trinity watershed play
in providing essential resources for local fish, wildlife, plant communities, and people. Josh Smith and Bridger Cohan from the Watershed Research and Training Center will share their work on meadow inventory and assessment as part of the Klamath Meadows Partnership,
along with opportunities for enhancing and restoring these vital habitats. <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/1004291701100592/?ref=newsfeed" id="LPlnk200883" class="OWAAutoLink" title="https://www.facebook.com/events/1004291701100592/?ref=newsfeed">
