While the negative impact of forestry on salmon is well known among people whose lives are tied to the rivers that salmon spawn in, the population-level effects of forestry on salmon have not been quantified before. In this seminar, I will talk about how we reconstructed annual time series of forest disturbances to 1,745 salmon watersheds in coastal BC dating back to 1883 and then developed multi-population spawner-recruit models and fit it in a hierarchical Bayesian framework to estimate the effect of forestry disturbance on salmon productivity. I will also talk about how I used simulations and profile likelihoods to overcome some of the estimation challenges that I faced.
