PIT-tagged Pacific Lamprey Release and Detection Summaries

Summary visualizations of PIT-tagged Pacific Lamprey release and detection data for all years. The number of Pacific Lamprey detected is dependent on the presence of instream arrays. Click on an image to view full size.

Cumulative counts are binned by year difference between release date and maximum detection date
Year(s) difference between release date and maximum detection date is calculated for each PIT-tagged Pacific Lamprey with detection (interrogation or recapture) for all years of data, 2000-2024. Cumulative counts are binned by year difference.
Individual Release Hydrounits (HUC8) for number released and number detected of unique PIT-tagged Pacific Lamprey for all years
Individual Release Hydrounits (HUC8) are tracked (if more than 500 Pacific Lamprey released in all years) for number released and number detected of unique PIT-tagged Pacific Lamprey for all years, 2000-2024.
Line plot of number of PIT-tagged Pacific Lamprey released by month from 2000 to present.

  • Year 2026 is incomplete. Data presented in Migration Timing Characteristics table is data through today's date.
  • Data Courtesy of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
  • Date Calculations:
    1. Query DART database for passage counts by Day of Year (not calendar date).
    2. Based on query results, calculate total number of fish for each year (reported as "Run Size" in table).
    3. Based on query results, calculate cumulative number of fish by day in the year.
    4. Based on query results, calculate the Day of Year when fish passage % is equal to or greater than the target percent, e.g., 5% passage. Passage % for a day = cumulative number of fish for day / total fish in year.
    5. For each individual year target passage percent, first date, and last date results: convert Day of Year to Calendar Date for given year, taking into consideration leap year. Report calendar date in table.
    6. For each individual year middle run duration: 80% duration = 1 + (90% Day of Year - 10% Day of Year), 50% duration = 1 + (75% Day of Year - 25% Day of Year), 90% duration = 1 + (95% Day of Year - 5% Day of Year). Report days in table.
    7. For each target passage percent, first date, and last date: calculate average Day of Year for that passage target percent from each individual year Day of Year values. Convert result into integer. Treat integer as Day of Year and convert into Calendar Date for a non-leap year. Report as Average.
    8. For each target passage percent, first date, and last date: calculate median Day of Year for that passage target percent from individual Day of Year values. Convert median Day of Year into Calendar Date for a non-leap year. Report as Median.
    9. Individual year calendar date values reported in table honor leap year. Calculated calendar date values (Average and Median) treat results as non-leap year dates.
  • Water Supply historical, current, and forecast data provided courtesy of Northwest River Forecast Center, NOAA. In the Migration Timing Table, after the percent normal value the 'W' indicates the year is ranked as one of the 5 wettest years for Apr-Sep. The 'D' indicates the year is ranked as one of the 5 driest years for Apr-Sep.

  • Year 2026 is incomplete. Data presented in Migration Timing Characteristics table is data through today's date.
  • Data Courtesy of U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
  • Date Calculations:
    1. Query DART database for passage counts by Day of Year (not calendar date).
    2. Based on query results, calculate total number of fish for each year (reported as "Run Size" in table).
    3. Based on query results, calculate cumulative number of fish by day in the year.
    4. Based on query results, calculate the Day of Year when fish passage % is equal to or greater than the target percent, e.g., 5% passage. Passage % for a day = cumulative number of fish for day / total fish in year.
    5. For each individual year target passage percent, first date, and last date results: convert Day of Year to Calendar Date for given year, taking into consideration leap year. Report calendar date in table.
    6. For each individual year middle run duration: 80% duration = 1 + (90% Day of Year - 10% Day of Year), 50% duration = 1 + (75% Day of Year - 25% Day of Year), 90% duration = 1 + (95% Day of Year - 5% Day of Year). Report days in table.
    7. For each target passage percent, first date, and last date: calculate average Day of Year for that passage target percent from each individual year Day of Year values. Convert result into integer. Treat integer as Day of Year and convert into Calendar Date for a non-leap year. Report as Average.
    8. For each target passage percent, first date, and last date: calculate median Day of Year for that passage target percent from individual Day of Year values. Convert median Day of Year into Calendar Date for a non-leap year. Report as Median.
    9. Individual year calendar date values reported in table honor leap year. Calculated calendar date values (Average and Median) treat results as non-leap year dates.
  • Water Supply historical, current, and forecast data provided courtesy of Northwest River Forecast Center, NOAA. In the Migration Timing Table, after the percent normal value the 'W' indicates the year is ranked as one of the 5 wettest years for Apr-Sep. The 'D' indicates the year is ranked as one of the 5 driest years for Apr-Sep.
