Meta Identifier	GOGAspawner
Type of Data	Salmonid spawning
Originator	Golden Gate National Recreation Area, NPS
Description	Live and carcass salmonid counts using sampling protocol developed for the Redwood Creek watershed in Humboldt County, Redwood National Park, by Dave Anderson and others were followed as closely as possible in Redwood Creek, southern Marin County. Emphasis in these studies was placed on coho salmon. Surveys were conducted approximately every two weeks during the coho salmon spawning period and generally required two consecutive days to complete. Survey areas included 6.7 km of Redwood Creek, starting approximately 140 meters below the Pacific Way bridge to .5 km above Bridge 4 in Muir Woods, and 1 km of Fern Creek from its confluence with Redwood Creek. See reports for details.

Maint. and Update Freq.	annual
Purpose	To develop an index of annual escapement of coho salmon for analysis of long-term trends, to gather distributional information of spawning coho, to determine population characteristics of returning coho adults including size, age, and sex, and to measure certain hydrologic conditions related to salmon run.
Data Quality Information	Calibration of walking counts was not conducted and the frequency of surveys (approximately two weeks) is lower than recommended for carcass counts (3-4 days).
Use Constraints	No estimate of adult spawning population was estimated. Carcass counts may be underestimated.
