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 | FSW_Greenwd |
Type of Data | Habitat assessment and road inventory |
Originator | Forest, Soil & Water, Inc. |
Description | FSW surveyed 10-15% (16590 meters) of mainstem Greenwood Creek. Beginning at the Elk County Water District Wells at the 101 bridge, crews surveyed 30 meter reaches every 210 meters, or 80 sample sites. Data on valley and channel morphology, bank stability, large woody debris, pool habitat, fish sightings, and Vwave data were recorded at each sample site. In addition, field crews collected information on sediment transport corridors (STC's) for the entire length of the survey. The reports only contain raw data for Vwave and STC's. |

Purpose | Purpose was 1) to evaluate the health of the mainstem of Greenwood Creek, its ability to supply clean drinking water to the citizens of the Elk Community, and its ability to provide spawning and rearing habitat for resident and migratory salmonids; 2) identify sediment source areas, problem erosion sites or areas with degraded salmonid habitat for erosion control projects or fish habitat restoration efforts; and 3) establish a baseline database for Greenwood Creek to be used in further studies or future monitoring programs. |
Data Quality Information | High. Methods are described in detail. Data reported in high level of accuracy. |
Use Constraints | None |
Supplemental Information | All data drawn from report cited below. Stream survey methods were adapted from the Washington Forest Practice Board's Watershed Assessment Manual (1992), CDFG Salmonid Stream Habitat Restoration Manual (1991) and Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission's Timber-Fish-Wildlife Stream Assessment Protocols (1994). V-wave protocols are based on research by Hilton and Lisle (1993), Knopp (1993) and the application system demonstrated in the WFPB manual (1992). |
