The abundance of salmonid populations in the Columbia River basin has declined through the past 150 years due in part to alterations of salmon habitat, including degradation and loss of spawning and rearing areas, alteration of river flows, and impediments to juvenile and adult migrations.
“The abundance of salmonid populations in the Columbia River basin has declined through the past 150 years due in part to alterations of salmon habitat (Myers et al. 2006), including the degradation and loss of spawning and rearing areas, alteration of river flows from historical patterns, and impediments to juvenile and adult migrations (Sherwood et al. 1990;Sheer and Steel 2006).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
