“…We focused perturbation analysis on the CR because different techniques may be available to target different life stages (e.g., dam operations to target incubating eggs [Korman et al.,
2011] vs. electrofishing for older life stages). All life stages are susceptible to electrofishing in BAC (Healy, Moore, et al.,
2022). Although the DyHDER accounts for some environmental and demographic stochasticity (i.e., vital rate temporal variance) (Murphy et al.,
2020) (Appendix S1; Figures 4, 5, & 7), we acknowledge our use of mean values for other parameters (e.g.,
for electrofishing suppression) causes underrepresentation of error in our results; thus, scenario outcomes should be interpreted relative to each other (Morris & Doak, 2002).…”
