Creator | Deacon, Jeffrey R.; Mize, Scott V. |
Subject | Fishes; Water quality; Water quality monitoring stations; |
Coverage | Colorado River (Wyo.-Utah); Colorado River (Colo.-Mexico); |
Description | The sampling design of the National Water-Quality Assessment (NAWQA) program emphasizes a multidisciplinary approach using physical, chemical, and biological information to provide multiple lines of evidence to describe water-quality conditions. The composition of fish communities at stream sites representing selected environmental settings is one characteristic assessed as part of the NAWQA program (Meador and others, 1993a). The presence and abundance of fish species can be related to water... |
