Abstract: This project will determine the relation between resident and anadromous forms of Dolly Varden and cutthroat trout within the same watershed and between watersheds in Prince William Sound. In FY 98, analysis of genetic, meristic, and life-history features of each group, which were sampled in FY 96 and FY 97, will be concluded. Results from this study will allow development of a longterm, comprehensive and ecologically sound restoration strategy for these fish.
