A thermal Forward Looking Infrared Radar (FLIR) image showing the confluence of the Klamath River with Beaver Creek. Beaver Creak is approximately 2 - 3 degrees C cooler then the river. Surface temperatures of Beaver Creek range from 20-23 C while the Klamath from 23-26 C. The mouth of Beaver Creek is a thermal refugia that is used by cold water fish species during the summer months. For more information on the Oregon State University FLIR study, click on Info Links.

A thermal Forward Looking Infrared Radar Image (FLIR) showing the confluence of the Klamath River (flowing from the top of the image to the bottom of the image) and Horse Creek (flowing left to right in the image). Horse Creek is showing surface temperatures of approximately 20-23 degrees C with a thermal plume extending into the Klamath of 22-23 degree C water. The Klamath River itself shows surface temperatures of 25-26.9 C with warmer water on the margins. Image from Oregon State University ArcView FLIR project.
