habitat degradation, climate change, and ecosystem health. Despite significant strides in increasing juvenile Chinook Salmon populations, the challenge remains to boost adult returns as they face numerous survival hurdles. This article delves into the vital
roles of algae and benthic macroinvertebrates, essential food sources for young salmonids, alongside the impacts of scouring floods and inundation on their growth. Explore how innovative restoration strategies are reshaping river habitats to support these
keystone species and enhance aquatic ecosystems! <a href="https://www.trrp.net/featured-article-apr25/" id="OWAb385dd7f-67c8-bdde-42c7-e6527c039676" class="OWAAutoLink" title="https://www.trrp.net/featured-article-apr25/" style="margin: 0px;">

<i>Equisetum</i>, known as horsetail, are a commonly known group of plants that thrive in wetland ecosystems. Although quite familiar,
<i>Equisetum</i> has much to uncover, with a history dating back 375 million years! These “living fossils” play a crucial role in riverbank stabilization and biodiversity, have multiple propagation methods, key ecological contributions, and traditional uses
that have spanned cultures around the globe. Dive into the dynamic life of horsetails and uncover their importance in both nature and human history!
