SACRAMENTO (Nov. 15, 2016) – The feasibility of using natural external marks such as spots and scars to better study cultured Delta Smelt will be the basis of U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service biologist Gonzalo Castillo's presentation at the 2016 Bay Delta Science Conference that began today. The conference runs Thursday, November 17.

Castillo's presentation, "Identification of Individual Cultured Delta Smelt Using Visual and Automated Analysis of Natural Marks," is one of several featuring USFWS scientists over the conference's three days (full list below). The popular bi-annual conference provides a forum for presenting technical analyses and results related to the Delta Science Program and to provide new information to the broad community of scientists, engineers, resource managers, and stakeholders working on Bay-Delta issues.

The conference's full agenda and other information can be found at http://scienceconf2016.deltacouncil.ca.gov/

In cooperation with the UC Davis Fish Conservation and Culture Lab, and the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, Castillo will present the preliminary results on the feasibility of using external natural marks to identify cultured Delta Smelt. This is the first study that evaluated the use of non-artificial marks to identify individual cultured Delta Smelt, Castillo said.
