The first part is a series of Internet links that help define the meanings and potential problems associated with exotic and transgenic fish populations in the Willamette and Columbia Rivers. The following selection of links is intended to guide students toward the types of information they find of most interest or use. Questions are arranged by theme and are directly related to current environmental sciences and resources management problems. A portion of each answer is also related to the presence of transgenic and exotic fish in the environment, particularly how they might relate to local anadromous fish populations. Students, teachers, and other interested parties are encouraged to submit additional problems and questions.
Editorial comment is also welcome.
The clearer and more comprehensive the problems and questions can be stated, the better. A. Laws and Economics. Only a portion of these bodies of water are in your School District, and maybe none within your own school's boundaries. Maybe they are GMO trout, or came from brood stock from another state. B. Drought and Global Warming.
