SHEN Fish Monitoring SOP 04: Locating sites in the field, Version 1.0
Wofford JE and Demarest ED. 2018. SHEN Fish Monitoring SOP 04: Locating sites in the field, Version 1.0
Monitoring protocols involve revisiting specific sites during each sampling event, and locating those sites quickly and efficiently is critical to a functional program. This SOP outlines methods of locating specific sampling sites in the field. Sites are generally 100m long, with actual site lengths established to include multiple fish habitat types, and to allow for the start and end point of the reach to occur at geomorphic breaks that limit fish movement during sampling. All site lengths are documented in the fisheries database. Tables 1 and 2 include a list of sites and additional sampling information.
