Stream Habitat Reach Summary - South Coast [ds768]

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>This dataset contains in-stream salmonid habitat data summarized at the reach level. The data have been summarized from habitat unit level data collected by CDFW from November 2010 into September 2012. The database represents salmonid stream habitat surveys from 12 streams. Approximately 160 miles of streams were surveyed. The database helps identify and describe in-stream habitat available to anadromous salmonids within watersheds of the Santa Ynez hydrologic unit of the Central Coast Hydrologic Regions. Data were collected using standardized survey techniques according to the version of the "California Stream Habitat Restoration Manual" (see Flosi et al.) that was current in the year of survey. Field survey teams measured up to 60 parameters for selected habitat units. Stream surveys typically started at the downstream confluence and proceeded upstream to the "limit of anadromy" as assessed by the survey crew. WHAT EACH RECORD REPRESENTS Each record in this dataset represents in-stream habitat unit level data summarized at the stream reach level. A habitat unit is the base level for the stream habitat surveys and is generally determined by the occurrence of riffle, run and pool sections along the stream. Stream reaches are determined by changes in stream channel type as described by Rosgen (1994).</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
