Dr. Gordie Reeves will discuss his research on the impact of PNW fire on trout and salmon fisheries.

Gordie Reeves is an emeritus Research Fish Biologist at the PNW Research Station in Corvallis, OR. He retired in June 2018 after 35 years in that position. His expertise is in the freshwater ecology of anadromous salmon and trout, conservation biology of those fish, and aquatic aspects of landscape ecology. He has studied the ecology of anadromous salmon and trout in the Pacific Northwest, northern California, Idaho, and Alaska and fish ecology in New Zealand and New York. He has published over 100 papers on the freshwater ecology of Pacific salmon and trout, effects of land management activities on the freshwater habitats of these fish, conservation plans, and dynamics of aquatic ecosystems in the PNW. He has led committees that developed and evaluated options for managing federal lands in the PNW and Alaska. He was also a member of the NOAA Fisheries Technical Recovery and Biological Review Teams for ESA listed Coho salmon in coastal Oregon and EPA panel on Pebble Mine. His current work focuses on potential effects of climate change on Pacific salmon in Alaska and the PNW and development of the Elliott State Research Forest.
