My name is Mike Grill and I am an Environmental Scientist with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. I have filled various roles within the San Joaquin River Restoration Program since 2011, beginning as a Scientific Aid. During my undergraduate degree at CSU-Fresno, I conducted research on macro-invertebrate drift dynamics in the San Joaquin River and impacts to recreational use resulting from the San Joaquin River Restoration Program. I completed my MS-Biology degree at CSU-Fresno in the spring of 2020. My thesis study focused on thermal tolerances of fall-run Chinook salmon embryos. Currently my research is focused on adult spring-run Chinook salmon holding and movement using acoustic telemetry.
