Carlisle S and Reichmuth M. 2015. Long term monitoring of coho salmon and steelhead trout during freshwater life stages in coastal Marin County: 2011 annual report. Natural Resource Report. NPS/SFAN/NRR—2015/969. National Park Service. Fort Collins, Colorado
The San Francisco Bay Area Network (SFAN) monitors populations of coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and steelhead trout (O. mykiss) in watersheds at Point Reyes National Seashore, Golden Gate National Recreation Area, and Muir Woods National Monument. The watersheds, including Olema Creek, Redwood Creek, and Pine Gulch Creek, represent the majority of streams supporting salmonids in Marin County, California, and support the a population of coho salmon near the southern extent of their range on the Pacific Coast. The National Park Service SFAN Inventory and Monitoring Program and California Department of Fish and Wildlife have supported monitoring of multiple coho salmon life stages in coastal Marin County watersheds since 1998. Monitoring includes adult escapement surveys, outmigrant smolt trapping, and basinwide juvenile coho surveys and summer index reach monitoring. This report presents a summary of monitoring results for the 2011-2012 spawner season, 2011 smolt trapping season, and 2011 summer juvenile surveys.
