Alden research estimates of downstream survival from the
Atlantic salmon Dam Impact analysis model v67. Estimates are based on
in-river flow. This dataset was updated in 2020 following changes to the
hydrosystem associated with the Penobscot River Restoration Project.
A dataframe with 9,356 observations of 4 variables
flow_cfs Value of flow (discharge)
cumulative_prob Cumulative flow probability
flow_prob Probability of individual flow value
smolt_surv_prob Smolt survival probability given flow
