Off Channel Habitat

Off-channel habitats provide lower water velocity, moderated water temperature, and enhanced food availability. They are important because they have been shown to benefit juvenile salmon growth and survival, decrease their competition for food and space, help keep larger predators away and provide important refuge.

The degree to which off-channel habitats are linked to the main channel via surface water connections is generally termed connectivity.  When connectivity increases more aquatic habitat is created.
