Topic	Habitat Typing: Little Valley Creek Embeddedness

 

Caption:  Gravel embeddedness is a measure of gravel quality at potential salmonid spawning sites taken ocularly during habitat typing surveys. Embeddedness is the degree to which substrate in pool tail crests are buried. Optimal spawning habitat according to Flosi and Reynolds (1996) is less than 25% embedded (Category 1). Little Valley Creek showed substantially impaired spawning habitat suitability with most substrate (88%) in pool tail crests showing more than 75% embeddedness. The survey covered 6,118 feet or 1.2 miles. Data collected by Georgia Pacific and supplied for use in KRIS by the California Department of Fish and Game, Sacramento, CA.
