KRIS Humboldt Bay: Meta Information Page
This page contains detailed information about a data set in KRIS, including where the original data reside and how to contact the sources for the data. Data sets are linked to the appropriate page by means of the Meta Identifier. Many data sets can be linked to same page by sharing the same Meta Identifier.
Meta Identifier | SF |
Type of Data | Turbidity Threshold Sampling (stage, discharge, turbidity, suspended sediment, rainfall) |
Originator | Salmon Forever |
Description | Salmon Forever's Watershed Watch program conducts Turbidity Threshold Sampling at four sites in Elk River and Freshwater Creek. Datasets include stage, discharge, turbidity, suspended sediment, and rainfall. The sites are North Fork Elk River (site KRW) approximately 1 mile above its confluence with South Fork Elk River, South Fork Elk River (site SFM) approximately 0.5 miles above its confluence with North Fork Elk River, lower Freshwater Creek (site HHB) at Howard Heights Bridge, and middle Freshwater Creek (site FTR) just upstream of Graham Gulch. Sampling began in hydrologic year 1999 at the FTR site. |
