Watershed Health Monitoring: Wood Volume in Streams
This is a list of wood volume measurements among randomly selected stream sites in Washington State during 2009-2016. Data were collected for the Department of Ecology's Watershed Health Monitoring surveys. This list only displays data from the most recent sampling event at any site.
Columns
| Name | Socrata field name | Column name in sgr mount | Data type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Status and Trends Region | status_and_trends_region | status_and_trends_region | Text | Status and Trends Region as described in Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) EAP105 and SOP EAP106: See https://ecology.wa.gov/Research-Data/Monitoring-assessment/River-stream-monitoring/Habitat-monitoring/Habitat-monitoring-methods |
| LWD Rating | lwd_rating | lwd_rating | Text | High, medium, or low volume for the given scoring class. Medium is based on the interquartile range of reference sites in the class. |
| ECOREG3_NM | ecoreg3_nm | ecoreg3_nm | Text | EPA Level III ecoregion from the Washington Master Sample: https://fortress.wa.gov/ecy/gispublic/DataDownload/EAP_ENV_MasterSample.htm |
| Latest DCE through 2016 | latest_dce_through_2016 | latest_dce_through_2016 | Text | Last sampling event at the given site |
| SALMON_RR | salmon_rr | salmon_rr | Text | Salmon Recovery Region as described in the Washington Master Sample: https://fortress.wa.gov/ecy/gispublic/DataDownload/EAP_ENV_MasterSample.htm |
| SalmHabDist (m) | salmhabdist_m | salmhabdist_m | Number | Stream distance (m) above known salmon/trout habitat. Knowlege of habitat existence is based on Watershed Health Monitoring catch data or upon Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife maps: http://apps.wdfw.wa.gov/phsontheweb/. Distance was derived using the measure tool on phsontheweb. |
| Region_Round | region_round | region_round | Text | The statewide survey round and status and trends region for the given data collection event. Round 1 is 2009-2012; round 2 is 2013-2019. |
| LWDSiteVolume100m (m3/100m) | lwdsitevolume100m_m3_100m | lwdsitevolume100m_m3_100m | Number | Bankfull channel wood volume (m3/100m) as reported by the Watershed Health Database: https://ecology.wa.gov/Research-Data/Monitoring-assessment/River-stream-monitoring/Habitat-monitoring/Watershed-health. Calculations are described in the Metric Dictionary: https://fortress.wa.gov/ecy/publications/SummaryPages/1303033.html |
| Scoring Class | scoring_class | scoring_class | Text | Designation for which of six reference condition classes for wood volume applies to the data collection event. Classes are based on location and stream bankfull width. |
| RatingSource | ratingsource | ratingsource | Text | Either 1) Martin Fox & Susan Bolton (2007) North American Journal of Fisheries Management, 27:1, 342-359, or 2) References sites described in the attachment to this metadata. |
