PurposeThe original purpose of the adult salmonid spawner counts was to get some measure of success of restoration projects. Counts in 1995-96 and 1996-97 were conducted as part of the National Emergency Assistance Program (NEAP) for displaced salmon fishermen, while the more extensive counts in 1998-1999 were part of a comprehensive watershed study by the Mendocino County Resources Conservation District.
Data Quality InformationSome very dry years such as 1990-1991 may have lacked sufficient flow to allow fish to reach survey areas. Alternately, high flows and turbidity may have hampered surveys in other years.
Use ConstraintsNo population estimates are possible from these data because they are incomplete.
