Subject: Large woody debris jams in stream restorations as salmonid habitat

I am a graduate student in Landscape Architecture at the University of
Washington and have been lurking for two years now.  My interest is in
designing stream restorations using materials native to the site.  In
western Washington, this would be large woody debris(LWD). I am planning
to write my thesis, this year, on the use of LWD jams in stream
rehabilitation projects on streams with slopes of 5%-20%.  I am trying to
create steps and pools using only LWD.

Has anyone had experience with this type of project?  My hope is that this
would mimic nature and that it would provide both passage for fish and
habitat.  At this point I am assuming that trout and salmon would be the
species that would benefit from this type of restoration.  I have talked
with Tim Abbe, a UW researcher doing studies of  LWD jams on large rivers.
He has seen salmonids upstream of large jams on rivers in western
Washington.

I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has had experience with this
subject or has seen any articles on it.

On another topic,  I agree that advertising projects and services is
inappropriate for this forum, but I do feel that job offerings are
appropriate.  As someone that will be looking for a position next year,
I'd like to see more of them.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Sandy Salisbury
