SUMMARY:WA-BC AFS Workshop - Fishing for Clarity: Knowledge Modeling to Support Cross-Organizational Collaboration and Data Sharing About Salmon Escapement
DESCRIPTION:UPDATED March 5\, 2025 \nFishing for Clarity: Knowledge Modeling to Support Cross-Organizational Collaboration and\nData Sharing About Salmon Escapement \nAFS Washington-British Columbia Chapter Meeting Vancouver BC March 10\, 2025 9:00 am – 2:30 pm\nIn person attendees will be in the hotel Salon C (Cordova Level) \nWorkshop Description\nIn this workshop (sponsored by Fisheries and Oceans Canada\, NCEAS\, PSMFC StreamNet\, and PNAMP)\,\nparticipants will learn about using a knowledge modeling approach to integrate data across multiple\norganizations engaged in monitoring salmon spawner abundance. Focusing on the challenge of being able to\nintegrate salmon escapement observations across diverse entities\, workshop attendees learn about processes\nto develop a shared ontology\, starting with mapping of concepts that underlie salmon escapement\nobservations. The workshop will introduce participants to the skills needed to build scalable\, interoperable\ndata models\, an important component of enabling integrated data across organizations for better analysis and\ndecision-making. Workshop participants will be invited to a future workshop where we share practical tools\nand conduct further hands-on exercises to enable a roadmap for advancing data sharing and collaboration in\nsalmon management. \nWorkshop Objectives\n● Shared Understanding of Challenges: Identify and address challenges in integrating heterogeneous data\nfrom different systems and organizations.\n● Strategies for Standardizing Terms: Understand the key principles and methodologies of knowledge\nmodeling.\n● Best Practices for Salmon Data Stewardship: Invite critical review of best practices outlined in\nmanuscript\, identify missing best-practices\, coordinate authorship.\n● Next Steps for Continued Collaboration: Discuss strategies for ensuring the scalability and sustainability\nof data models in collaborative environments. \nWorkshop Flow:\nThe workshop will begin with brief roundtable introductions for in-person attendees and chat\nintroductions for virtual participants\, following a welcome from the hosts. The objectives and informal\,\ndiscussion-based format for the workshop will be outlined. \nMatt Jones (NCEAS) will set the stage by showcasing innovative data science and knowledge\nengineering solutions used to improve salmon data integration and discoverability in Alaska. Their\nwork will serve as a springboard for exploring how similar approaches could address inter-agency and\ntransboundary data-sharing challenges. \nInvited speakers will present their salmon data integration projects\, focusing on the challenges of\ndefining and standardizing terms and how they overcame them to integrate data from disparate\nsources. \nWe will also discuss an in-progress paper on salmon data stewardship principles\, inviting new\nco-authors to contribute ideas and continue collaboration beyond the workshop. \nThe hands-on session (1 hour) will be conducted in three breakout groups\, each working with a\ndifferent dataset. Two in-person groups will focus on NuSEDS and SALHub\, while the online breakout\ngroup will work with Streamnet CAX-NOSA. The session will consist of two 30 minute activities: 1)\nDecomposing dataset concepts – identifying core concepts and relationships within each dataset’s\nvocabulary; 2) Clustering identified concepts – organizing them into broader conceptual categories.\nParticipants will use Google Sheets and Mural for these activities. Each dataset will have a designated\nGoogle Sheet in the working drive here\, containing its vocabulary and definitions. Breakout group\nmembers will use these Sheets to guide their discussions\, while the Group Leader and Scribe will\ndocument key insights and results on the Mural Board. \nThe session will conclude with a discussion on next steps\, identifying potential tools\, processes\, and\nvenues for formal collaboration toward more interoperable international salmon data. \n

SUMMARY:Cultural Competency & Relevancy\, and Indigenous Knowledge Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Cultural Competency & Relevancy\, and Indigenous Knowledge Workshop \nPresented by ​Sammy Matsaw Jr.\, PhD​​ Pronouns: he/him \nTribal affiliations: Shoshone-Bannock and Oglala Lakota \nResearch Scientist for the Fish and Wildlife Department of the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes \nIn the sciences so much is lost in communication\, when communicating is the heart of the work scientists do as managers and researchers in natural resources. ​The nuance in language is not lost in nomenclature\, taxonomy\, and so on; however\, in everyday speaking with people from different ideas\, backgrounds\, and ways of knowing there is a lack of understanding. In this workshop we will enhance awareness of biases\, communication skills\, and the disparities between cultural knowledges. This workshop is not a be-all and end-all rather a starting point for ongoing self-work and labor to sustainably lift one’s own awareness evolving towards social and environmental justice. Especially important when standardizing data that intersects with tribal data sovereignty\, and intellectual property based in Indigenous Knowledges. \n  \n\n  \nSammy is a father\, husband\, grandfather\, and extended family member amongst the Shoshone-Bannocks (enrolled)\, and Oglala Lakota. He is a pipe-carrier and Sundancer with both his mother and father’s tribes as a result of needing traditional healing from being a combat veteran. He brings ten years of military experience and leadership. Sammy is a co-founder of River Newe—an Indigenous owned non-profit that aims to reconnect intergenerational learning on land with tribal youth. He has a PhD with 10 plus years of science and management experience involved in Indigenous sovereignty and treaties with the Shoshone-Bannock Tribes’ Fish and Wildlife department. \n

SUMMARY:Coordinated Assessments Partnership 2023 Workshop
DESCRIPTION:We invite you participate in the 2023 CAP Workshop. This workshop will be hybrid\, connecting online and in person participants for maximum accessibility. Please help us plan by registering for each day indicating how you will attend. \nWorkshop Purpose \nParticipants in this workshop will support CAP in providing quality data for regional assessments and reporting through efficient data exchanges. \nWhat to expect at the 2023 CAP Workshop \n\nRecap of progress since our last workshop in 2017\nFacilitated discussion via break out groups to gather feedback on specific challenges submitting\, accessing\, and understanding data\, such as:\nInformation is reported but not used: are we seeking the right information to be submitted? Are data consumers aware of the available data? Are improvements needed to the user interface aspect of the data portal to make it easier to access the data?\nInformation anticipated but not reported: when we see a “hole” is it due to fact that those data were never collected? Or is it due to lack of staff capacity to provide the data to the portal? Or some other reason?\nInformation reported but not documented sufficiently for reuse: how can we improve metadata documentation? How can we improve communication between data providers (biologists and analysts) and data managers responsible to publicize those data so that metadata are sufficient for data reuse and provenance is clear?\nDiscussion of the future of data sharing: how can we stay abreast of technological changes\, manage increasing demands for information\, and plan to engage with a broader community to develop and promote best practices at broad scales?\n\nOutcomes \n\nRecommend solutions to address data submittal and retrieval challenges (provider/user perspectives)\nIdentify strategies for collaborative approaches and funding to address needs and challenges\n\nAgenda \n April 12th\, 10 am – 4:30 pm \n\nWelcome & Introductions\nRefresher on the CAP structure and processes\nResults from the past 6 years and current tasks\nData Submittal issues: Discussion of challenges and solutions\nData Retrieval/Data User issues: Discussion of challenges and solutions\n\nApril 13th\, 8:30 am – 11:15 am \n\nWelcome & Introductions\nPreparing for the future of efficient data exchanges\nFuture of data mobilization\n\nFor more information on the Coordinated Assessments Partnership\, visit: \nhttps://www.pnamp.org/project/coordinated-assessments-for-salmon-and-steelhead \nhttps://www.streamnet.org/cap/ \nContact Jen Bayer\, jbayer@usgs.gov\, or Nancy Leonard\, nleonard@psmfc.org\, for questions or feedback.

SUMMARY:ETIS Webinar Series - Aerial Monitoring of Aquatic Systems #1
DESCRIPTION:Watch Recording \nFeatured Presentations \nRichie Carmichael (Biomark) \nDrone Assisted Stream Habitat (DASH) Protocol: Establishing consistency and compatibility between UAS monitoring programs \nEffective ecosystem management relies on accurate and timely evaluations of environmental status and trends\, often equating to costly\, time intensive survey efforts. Rapid advances in technology are constantly improving sampling methods\, robust statistical inference\, and thus cost and time efficiency. Perhaps one of the greatest steps in broad-scale habitat and wildlife monitoring has been advances in remote sensing technology. The Columbia River Basin is a major target for habitat restoration\, working towards the de-listing of endangered Chinook salmon and steelhead. Multi-scale habitat characteristics are critical to understanding what defines quality habitat and where to focus restoration efforts. We developed the Drone Assisted Stream Habitat (DASH) protocol to collect data at the channel unit scale in a rapid manner\, which is then paired with multispectral imagery collected via drone. Thanks to the time and cost efficiency of drone surveys\, this approach can be easily applied to larger scales (tributary\, watershed) with minimal additional on-the-ground sampling. Furthermore\, we have developed tools that automate the post-processing of drone imagery\, substantially increasing the cost efficiency and ease of post-processing. This approach allows for the pairing of fish and habitat data at multiple spatial scales ranging from the watershed to the channel-unit. These data can then be used to populate fish-habitat models\, such as quantile regression forest (QRF) capacity models at any desired scale. In the Lemhi River\, Salmon ID\, we have applied DASH and QRF to define quality juvenile Chinook salmon and steelhead habitat\, identify current capacity limitations\, and monitor the effectiveness of restoration actions. Taken together\, the two-pronged DASH and QRF approach is a comparatively inexpensive tool to prioritize\, direct\, and monitor habitat restoration in near real-time. \n  \nSarah Hoffmann (Biomark) \nMachine learning applications for conservation \nEffective management of imperiled species\, and the habitats they rely on\, depend largely on accurate and timely environmental sampling. These data collection techniques are often costly\, time intensive\, or impossible due to inaccessible habitats. Advances in remote sensing techniques\, especially the availability of unmanned aerial systems (UAS\, drones)\, have vastly improved the efficiency of data collection; thus\, the new bottleneck occurs at the data processing step. Image processing (orthorectification\, alignment\, photogrammetry\, data extraction\, and analysis)\, data storage\, and computing requirements are all documented barriers to entry for remote sensing applications in the conservation world. To address this\, we are employing machine learning techniques to automate the processing of imagery and extraction of data. Multi-spectral drone imagery is calibrated to generate absolute values of reflectance and eliminate minute differences between sensor capture timing as the drone is moving. A contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE) is applied to increase contrast and definition\, thereby improving application of classifiers. We employed both a pixel-based random forest classifier as well as object-based detection in order to classify water\, bare earth\, vegetation\, and woody debris. We are currently working to refine these classifiers in order to extract increased detail at the habitat level. Within the confines of a mask regional convolutional neural network model (rCNN)\, we are able train a variety of datasets\, including the ability to detect and track marine megafauna throughout the southeast Florida coast. Given the proper training data\, this neural network classifier is seemingly applicable to a wide variety of ecosystems and species. Our goal is to develop tools that provide real-time\, actionable intelligence to drive the recovery of imperiled species.
