This project included:• determination of data requirements and methods• analysis of historical data for the major Fraser River sockeye populations for input into the model• quantification of the expected performance of different management options for a range of objectives• progress reports and facilitation of meetings• development of a user interface for the model• model documentation and training for DFO staff.

Provided teaching assistance to both graduate level Ecology and Environmental Toxicology students. Duties/functions included:• design and development of a spreadsheet model to be used by Resource and Environmental Management students in a major Ecology assignment• demonstrated and assisted students in the use of software associated with toxicology computer labs and tutorials
