Oak Creek Snails

Purpose

Trays filled with stream sediment will be placed in the channel for colonization by stream invertebrates. Snail densities in each tray will be manipulated to test the effect of snails on the abundance of other stream invertebrates. One half of the chann

Longterm Study of Watershed/Stream Habitat

Purpose

Long-term study of stream habitat and channel processes in relation to watershed characteristics and land use history. Continuation of a study begun in 1983. Objective is to assess natural variation in physical habitat and stream biota vs. human impacts

Ecology of Temporary Streams -- Leaf Degradation

Purpose

This study focuses on the degradation process of leaves that can be divided into mechanical processing consisting of sediment abrasion and biological processing by animal feeding. For this purpose, leaf packs in four different streams and within one str

Blodgett Tract Hydrology Study

Purpose

Project will collect precipitation data for a better understanding of the hydrology of the Blodgett Tract. Landslides and major changes in stream channels are often associated with major storms. This data will help to determine the magnitude of storms p

The effects of juvenile cutthroat trout on survival, growth, and behaviors of Pacific giant salamander larvae and factors contributing to their coexistence in small streams

Purpose

Two aspects of behavioral interactions between cutthroat trout and Pacific giant salamander larvae will be investigated in artificial pools placed in the stream channel. The first experiment will test palatability of salamanders to trout. Ind. Trout wil
