- Columbia Basin Research (CBR) http://www.cbr.washington.edu/ is a joint effort
of scientific research projects through the School of Aquatic and Fishery
Sciences at the University of Washington under the leadership of James
Anderson, Research Associate Professor, and John Skalski, Professor of
Biological Statistics.
We investigate issues surrounding salmon biology in the Columbia and Snake
River basins. Our research has produced computer models, which simulate and
predict salmon migration and survival in the Columbia Basin and salmon harvest
in the North Pacific. We also function as a secondary database site, providing
data and tools to analyze salmon issues in Columbia Basin. As a secondary
database site, we add value to the data through statistical analysis and
modeling activities.
The Columbia Basin Research group occupies an office in downtown Seattle.
Currently the CBR group has 20+ staff members including two faculty members,
research consultants, computer programmers, database manager, graduate
students, system administrator, program administrators, and various other
staff.
