Thank you.
Sockeye salmon are somewhat unique in their four-year cycle. They rely on one year of actual circulation in inland lakes as part of their life cycle and I have become aware of the actual requirements in those lakes of a four-year cycle so that they can replenish themselves with the nutrients. They can't sustain a high level year after year. That's part of the reason for the four-year dominant run, subdominant runs, and so on.
In the trends, has there been a higher impact in the subdominant run years? I'm wondering whether there's any correlation or whether you're working on correlations among these impacts. We hear, about predator swamping, that with the huge runs the predators don't have as much impact.
Have there been greater impacts in the subdominant years than in the dominant years?
