...Chinook salmon are dependent on the quantity and quality of aquatic habitats. Juvenile salmonids rely on a variety of non-main channel habitats that are critical to rearing. All listed salmonids use shallow, low flow habitats at some point in their life cycle. Examples of ***off-channel habitat*** include alcoves, channel edge sloughs, overflow channels, backwaters, terrace tributaries, off-channel dredge ponds, and braids (Anderson 1999; Swift III 1979)....

Without a properly functioning riparian zone, salmonids contend with a number of limiting factors. They face reductions in quantity and quality of both off-channel and pool habitats. Also, when seasonal flows are not moderated, both higher and lower flow conditions exist. Higher flows can displace fish and destroy redds, while lower flows cut off access to parts of their habitat. Finally, decreased vegetation limits the available shade and cover, exposing individuals to higher temperatures and increased predation.
