  • Summary

  • In this episode of Rising Tide David and Natasha Benjamin delve into the fascinating resilience of Pacific salmon, creatures that have thrived in dynamic landscapes shaped by natural forces like volcanoes, earthquakes, and landslides with the University of Alaska’s Dr. Peter Westley. As the environment changes at unprecedented rates, including the rise of hatchery-supported fisheries, we discuss how these shifts impact salmon populations in places like Alaska and California. From dam removals and urbanization to climate change, salmon continue to adapt. Join us as we explore the complex web of factors shaping the future of these remarkable fish. ** Additional Links & Resources Sequoias of the Sea: https://www.sequoiasofthesea.com Our Oceans: https://www.netflix.com/title/81139969 Discover the stories just below the surface of Earth's five oceans in this nature documentary series narrated and co-executive produced by Barack Obama.
