Title | Upper Russian River Steelhead Distribution Study |
Abstract | The purpose of the Upper Russian River Steelhead Distribution Study is to evaluate the distribution of steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) during summer conditions and assess habitat along the Russian River. Rearing habitat for steelhead may be limited in the river during summer when flows are lowest and water temperatures are highest. This study was a component of the Fisheries Enhancement Program (FEP) implemented by the Sonoma County Water Agency. The goal of the FEP is to improve native fish resources of the Russian River basin. |
Other Citation Details | Habitat frequency and steelhead associations with those habitats are covered in the report. |
