Caption:  The Source Table inverthab_all_mcdpw_1999_2002.xls.db shows the results of benthic macroinvertebrate sampling and habitat assessments conducted during September 1999, April 2000, and Spring 2002 at several sites in east Marin County watersheds. The metrics included in the table are the mean values for Taxonomic Richness (TAXARICH), Percent Dominant Taxon (PCTDOM), EPT Taxa (EPTTAXA), Modified EPT (MODEPT), Shannon Diversity (SHANNON), and Tolerance Value (TOLVALUE), along with the associated Index of Biological Integrity (IBI) score for each metric as well as the total IBI (IBI_TOTSCORE) and rank (IBIRANK). In addition, EPT Index (EPTINDEX) is also included. The habitat parameters include instream cover (INSTCOV), embeddedness (EMBEDD), velocity/depth (VELDEPTH), sediment deposition (SEDDEP), channel flow (CHANFLOW), channel alteration (CHANALT), riffle frequency (RIFFREQ), bank stability (BANKSTAB), vegetative protection (VEGPROT), riparian vegetative zone width (RIPVEG), total reach score (REACHTOT), condition (CONDITION), percent vegetative canopy cover estimate (VEGCANOP), water temperature in C (WATTEMP), specific conductance in uS/cm at 25 C (SPECCOND), and comments pertinent to the habitat assessment (HABCOMMENTS).
