Anderson DG. 2004. Redwood Creek estuary monitoring 2003 annual progress report. Redwood National and State Parks
From the Introduction: "This annual report summarizes Redwood National and State Parks' Fish and Wildlife Branch monitoring activities in the Redwood Creek estuary for calendar year 2003. Monitoring has occurred in the Redwood Creek estuary since 1980. The purpose of the estuary monitoring is to determine fish populations and growth, estuary water quality, water elevations, and document breaching incidents. In 2003, no berm elevations parallel to the shore were done. This report serves as the annual report for the parks' Division of Resource Management and Science." Sections of the report include Location, Methods, Water Quality Monitoring, Tide and Stream Flow Data, Estuary Water Levels, Estuary Cross Sections, Sand Berm Elevation Monitoring, Other Activities, Results, and Summary/Conclusion. The results indicate the fish species present (4 salmonid species, 7 other species), population estimates, and growth estimates. Appendices include: tabular and graphical data, cross section locations, and colored photographs of the study area.
