Caption: This chart shows the floating weekly average water temperature of the Klamath River at the Iron Gate Bridge, R-Ranch, below the Shasta, below the Scott River, and at Seiad Valley from May to November in 2002. Floating weekly average temperatures were typically lower closer to the Iron Gate Dam and increased downstream. Klamath floating average temperatures downstream of the Shasta reached stressful levels for salmonids earlier than R-Ranch and Iron Gate sites. Data are from the US Fish and Wildlife Service. See Info Links for more information.
