Purpose | Recording surface water temperatures in Mattole River and its tributaries. |
Data Quality Information | High. TIR measured temps ground-truthed with instream data-loggers, all were within 1.0°C, with average difference of ±0.4°C. TIR measures only surface temps, however, orginators claim that thermal stratification is rare in the Mattole. |
Use Constraints | none |
Supplemental Information | Longitudinal temperature profiles are also included in KRIS Mattole Map Project as ArcInfo coverages |
Counties | Upper Mendocino, Lower Humboldt |
