KRIS Klamath : Meta Information Page

This page contains detailed information about a data set in KRIS, including where the original data reside and how to contact the sources for the data. Data sets are linked to the appropriate page by means of the Meta Identifier. Many data sets can be linked to same page by sharing the same Meta Identifier.

Meta IdentifierFlows_HardyII
Type of DataFlow data and projected flow needs based on Klamath River flow, fish and fluvial data
OriginatorDr. Thomas Hardy
DescriptionHardy Phase I (1999) based flow recommendations on the basis of historical flows before and after dams, but Hardy Phase II had the benefit of additional field data collected along the mainstem Klamath River for nearly a decade by USFWS, CDFG, the Karuk Tribe, the Yurok Tribe and others. This added data on fish, substrate, habitat types, depth, velocity and other factors so that Phase II recommendations have a much broader and less theoretical basis. The Phase II study relied on state-of-the-art field data collection methodologies and modeling of physical habitat for target species and life stages of anadromous fish.
AreaKlamath River, iron Gate to the Trinity River
