20556 Tagging and habitat data (Movement and Survival of Juvenile Salmonids in Small Streams) Data Set Published / External 20544 FE Legacy Data Sets Project In Work 2005-08-15 2017-10-18 The Strait of Juan de Fuca Intensively Monitored Watershed (IMW) began in 2004 to test the watershed-scale response of steelhead and coho salmon to watershed restoration. The Strait IMW includes two treatment watersheds (East Twin River and Deep Creek) and one control watershed (West Twin River). Restoration treatments included LWD placement, road and culvert removal, off-channel habitat creation, and riparian planting. Monitoring of physical habitat as well as coho and steelhead parr densities began in 2004 using the EPA’s EMAP site selection and sampling protocols. Smolt and adult monitoring predates the IMW program and began as early as 1998 in some watersheds. Preliminary results suggest an increase in pool habitat and small increases in steelhead adults and smolts in East Twin River, as well as adult coho in Deep Creek. PIT tagging has revealed a large outmigration of age-0 coho in the fall that contributes to the adult return, stream swapping by juveniles, and varying return times for coho adults. Current research has answered a portion of our original questions and has raised new ones. Restoration treatments were completed fairly recently or are still in progress. As habitat typically does not respond immediately to treatment, additional years of monitoring are needed to determine watershed-scale fish response. Moving forward, analysis of otoliths to validate PIT tag data and new restoration methods such as carcass or nutrient enhancement may be merited. PIT tagging and habitat data. Includes fish weight, length, location, and PIT tag number. Habitat data includes wood measurements and stream surveys.

Spreadsheet Yes PARR This table contains data on fish collected during PIT tagging operations including tagged and untagged fish. Most of the data are from summer electrofishing surveys the data from fall and spring trapping are included in later years. 1 PIT Code TEXT No No Active The unique code of the tag that is inserted into the fish. This code is recorded by the MUX unit as the fish is detected at an antenna. Format is alphnumeric, three characters, a period then 10 characters, alpha limited to A-F. Blank if smolt was too small to tag or Mort=Y. TEXT 2 Date DATE No No Active Date stream/reach/habitat was sampled (electrofished). VALUES are 2003 to present. DATE 3 Season TEXT No No Active Time of year sampling took place. Most samples were in Summer (August and September), though in 2005 a few fish were tagged in Fall and Spring. VALUES are Summer, Fall, Winter, or Spring. TEXT 4 Tag Year NUMBER No No Active Year fish were tagged. VALUES are 2003 to present. NUMBER 5 River TEXT No No Active Stream where tagging/sampling took place. VALUES are East Twin, West Twin, Deep Creek. TEXT 7 Tributary TEXT No No Active Indicates whether the sampled East Twin reach was in the mainstem or in Sadie Creek (Major tributary of East Twin). VALUES are Mainstem, Sadie Creek, East Fork, West Fork, Unnamed and blank. TEXT 8 Reach Point NUMBER No No Active Reach Point - every 100 m in all three watersheds was marked by Lower Elwha Tribe from Highway 112 Bridge upstream. 100 m would be 1, 200 = 2 etc.. Most RPs are whole numbers (2, 71, etc.), though they can be more specific (e.g. 4.5, 6.5 etc.). We also identified some reaches and habitat units down to specific meter. For example, RP 8.28 was a reach that started at 828m. NUMBER 9 Habitat Unit NUMBER No No Active NOAA surveys in 2003 to 2008 often were done by sampling each habitat unit separately and the habitat unit sampled within that reach was identified. This is 0 for all Weyco surveys and NOAA surveys from 2009 onward, as Weyco samples entire reach using 1 or 3 pass electrofishing, and starting in 2009 NOAA surveys used same protocol as Weyco. VALUES are integers 0 to 24. NUMBER 10 Passes TEXT No No Active Number of electrofishing passes. Null means not electofished (smolt trap). VALUES are 0,1,2,3,4,5, blank. 0 or blank means they did not record number of passes. TEXT 11 Standardized Species TEXT No No Active Species are standardized on RBT(rainbow/steelhead), TF(trout fry), CO (coho), CT (cutthroat), STH (steelhead), SC=sculpin, CRAY=crayfish, LMP = lamprey, etc., ASTR - tailed frogs (Ascaphus truei). (Other values not yet corrected 1/24/2014). TEXT 12 Species TEXT No No Active Species, particularly for trout, was not consistently identified in earlier years (~2003 to 2007). This is the original field call, though likely was already cleaned up a little in data sheets before being standardized. TEXT 13 Fork Length NUMBER No No Active The fork length of the each fish measured to nearest millimeter. Non salmonids are often only counted, but not measured so fork lengths are usually missing for SC, LMP, etc. VALUES are >10mm and <650 mm. NUMBER 14 Fork Length Source TEXT No No Active In a few instances (Particularly prior to ~2007) length of a fish was not measured or there was an error, the length was then either estimated from the weight using a length weight equation or based on average weight of same size fish in habitat. Typically sculpin (SC) and crayfish (CRAY) are not measured so there will be a blank for many of these species. VALUES are """"blank"""", measured, or estimated. TEXT 15 Weight NUMBER No No Active Weight is measured to the nearest tenth of gram. If it is not measured, we estimate using weight-length formula developed for each species (CO, RBT, TR). NUMBER 16 Weight Source TEXT No No Active Indicates whether weight was measured or estimated from formula. VALUES are """"blank"""", measured, or estimated. TEXT 17 Time TEXT No No Active Time stamp from PIT tag """"brick"""" indicating when fish was tagged. VALUES are time to nearest second. TEXT 18 Recaptured TEXT No No Active Indicates whether this fish was a recapture from previous tagging. VALUES are Y, recapture, or N, not a recapture. TEXT 19 Mortality TEXT No No Active Y indicates fish died during sampling before it was released. N, it lived through release. TEXT 20 Notes TEXT No No Active Any notes about fish of site that might be relevant, may also be notes from when database was cleaned up. TEXT 21 Year River Reach Habitat Unit TEXT No No Active This was originally a concatenated field that denotes year, river and RP and habitat unit (reach point) to help match up with the habitat data table. It is not totally unique. VALUES are alphanumeric combination of Year, River, RP, Habitat Unit #. Retained for historical reasons. TEXT 22 Size Category TEXT No No Active Size category derived from fork length (fl). When fork length < 86, then Age 0, else Age 1+. TEXT 23 Fish ID NUMBER No No Active Unique fish id number, intended to correspond to order in original excel data sheet. NUMBER 24 Not Tagged TEXT No No Active This button was added to our field computer so if we came across a fish that was too weak or injured to tag, I could just press the 'no tag' button and not take the time to write out the reason why. TEXT 25 Weyerhauser Site NUMBER No No Active Weyerhauser site number. NUMBER 26 First Detection DATE No No Active Earliest detection of this tag. DATE 27 Last Detection DATE No No Active Latest detection of this tag. DATE 28 Total Detections NUMBER No No Active Total number of detections of this tag.
