Detailed SR Function Description
Function applied in Honea et al., (2009) for hatchery spring-run Chinook salmon survival. Spawner stage: Survivorship of spring-run Chinook spawners and water temperature (from reviews by McCullough, 1999; and Richter & Kolmes, 2005). The function is based on Cramer’s (2001) observations of reduced survivorship of hatchery fish.

Surv = 1 if Tpre < 16C
Surv = (5.43-0.28*Tpre) if 16 ≤ Tpre < 19
Surv = 0.01 if TPre ≥ 19

Where Tpre is the mean of daily maximum temperature (C) August–September.

Scheuerell et al. (2006) developed a separate function for wild spring-run Chinook survival (see report for details).
