The WFWARP program oversees a broad diversity of issues related to various biota protected and managed within the 193 million acres encompassing the National Forest System. The Fisheries Program within WFWARP assists the 300 fisheries biologists working among the 155 National Forests and Grasslands to provide technical, budgetary, strategy and partnership oversight to help achieve the Chief's aquatic priorities and manage these aquatic resources from a healthy ecosystem perspective. The Fisheries Program includes the Fish & Aquatic Ecology Unit, whose primary purpose is to facilitate the transfer of technology and technical information from the Forest Service's Research division to field biologists regarding climate change, genetics, aquatic organism passage, invasive species, land management and watershed restoration research.</span><span style='color:#333333;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;background:white'><span style='color:#333333;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:#2A2A2A;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in'>Specific research focus areas for the research participation program include:</span><span style='color:#333333;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-left:42.25pt;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-indent:-.25in;background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:#2A2A2A;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in'> Analyzing policy and legal issues related to aquatic management and watershed restoration on National Forest System lands;</span><span style='color:#333333;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-left:42.25pt;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-indent:-.25in;background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:#2A2A2A;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in'> Researching management options and strategies related to implementation of the USFS' Watershed Condition Framework for more effectively achieving watershed restoration on Forest System lands;</span><span style='color:#333333;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-left:42.25pt;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-indent:-.25in;background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:#2A2A2A;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in'> Evaluating economic benefits of various land management and aquatic management options related to fisheries, watershed health and recreational use of National Forest System lands;</span><span style='color:#333333;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-left:42.25pt;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-indent:-.25in;background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:#2A2A2A;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in'> Assisting in developing content for WFWARP website and the Aquatic Organism Passage website to include the current scientific research topics and results;</span><span style='color:#333333;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-left:42.25pt;margin-bottom:.0001pt;text-indent:-.25in;background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:#2A2A2A;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in'> Collecting and analyzing scientific and legal information about the ongoing debate on piscicide use on National Forest System lands.</span><span style='color:#333333;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:0in;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:0in;margin-left:42.25pt;margin-bottom:.0001pt;background:white'><span style='color:#333333;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in'> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;background:white'><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:#2A2A2A;border:none windowtext 1.0pt;padding:0in'>The research participant will gain first-hand knowledge of USFS's fisheries and related watershed and water programs.
