Observations of Chignik’s changing ecology The salmon runs to the Chignik River have been low for the fourt year in a row. There is no clear understanding of what environmental factors have contributed to the extremely low salmon runs over the past four years. But people there have noticed changes to the local ecosystem. Alvin Pedersen is a retired fisherman who has lived in Chignik Lagoon his whole life. He conducted research with the University of Washington in Black and Chignik lakes, trapping sockeye through the ice.  “We didn’t find a whole lot of sockeye, so the oxygen levels were low, and they thought a lot of the fish had moved on were not overwintering up there,” he said.
