Instream Habitat: Mendocino County, Russian River, California, 1992
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- This dataset describes the instream habitat of the Mendocino County reach of the Russian River, from the confluence of the Russian River and the East Fork Russian River (just below Lake Mendocino), to sixty feet upstream from where the US Highway 101 Hopland Bridge crosses the Russian River. The dataset contains information describing the instream habitat in terms of habitat type, thalweg depth, substrate type, shelter rating, presence of Ludwigia spp. as well as erosional information. The instream habitat data which this file illustrates was collected between the months of September and October, 1992.
- Purpose
- This dataset is to be used in riparian ecosystem management, planning analysis, and impact assessment.

Bibliographic information
Supplemental information | This data gathering effort was a component of the Russian River Resource Enhancement and Access Plan's Instream Habitat Inventory. Dynamic segmentation was performed on the "nchydro" streams coverage developed in 2001 by the California Department of Forestry to create a line file of the collected data. Technical and resource assistance in performing the dynamic segmentation was provided by Colin Brooks of CDFG and the Integrated Hardwood Range Management Program (IHRMP) North Coast Research and Extension Group. Upon completion of the dynamic segmentation, the resulting line work was calibrated using known point locations as calibration points. However, the original data contains a margin of error of up to 10% for the linear footage. The error must be taken into consideration when using this data. |
