KRIS Russian River: 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 | SR_bugs |
Type of Data | Macroinvertebrate/Bioassessment |
Originator | City of Santa Rosa |
Description | Aquatic insects were collected from Santa Rosa Creek by the Sustainable Land Stewardship Institute under contract to the City of Santa Rosa. Samples were taken using a kick net in keeping with the California RAPID Bioassessment protocols (CDFG, 1998) and the Russian River Index of Biological Integrity (Harrington, 1999). Metrics calculated are EPT, Richness, Percent Dominance, Simpson and Hilsenhoff Diversity Indices. |

Data Set Name | bug_sr_creek_metrics_xtab_00_02.dbf |
Purpose | The purpose of the data collection was to assess the relative health of Santa Rosa Creek and its tributaries and for possible use as baseline to monitor water quality trends. |
Data Quality Information | Data quality is high. |
Use Constraints | Biological samples represent only one location in each stream, so streams may have other reaches of varying health. RAPID Bioassessment methods use sub-sampling techniques. |
Supplemental Information | See KRIS Russian Bibliography for Sustainable Land Stewardship Institute. 2002. Biological and Physical/Habitat Assessment of Selected Sites Within the Santa Rosa Watershed. Performed under contract to the City of Santa Rosa, CA. 18 p. |

Title | Biological and Physical/Habitat Assessment of Selected Sites Within the Santa Rosa Watershed |
Abstract | This report was assembled to: 1) Provide base line information on the macroinvertebrate assemblages within the Santa Rosa watershed; 2) Evaluate the biological and physical/habitat condition at six sampling sites located on Matanzas, Colgan, Piner, Paulin, Brush and Peterson Creeks using the Russian River IBI. 3) Provide recommendations and strategies for continued monitoring. |
