Meta Identifier | DWKwalker75 |
Type of Data | Electrofishing/seining, salmonid rearing habitat evaluation, temperature |
Originator | D. W. Kelley and Associates |
Description | During the summer of 1975 electrofishing was conducted in the mid and upper reaches of Walker Creek and seining was conducted from Highway One upstream to the upper end of tidal influence. In addition, the amount and quality of salmonid rearing habitat was evaluated at flows of 1-5-3.0 cfs, recorded at the USGS gage near Tomales. Summer water temperatures were also measured throughout Walker Creek as a part of this study. |
