The salmon run in the Thompson watershed peaked in 2001 at 3,200,000. The following
year only 800,000 returned. In 2003, 1,200,000 returned; in 2004, 2,400,000 returned;
and in 2005, the run peaked again at 2,700,000. The following year, there was a 50%
drop from the 2005 numbers.
Plot the fluctuations in salmon numbers from 2001 through 2006. Use the y-axis for the
salmon numbers and the x-axis for the years. Suggestion: lay out the y-axis at 200,000
intervals.
