KRIS Russian River: Chart Page

Area Guerneville
Topic WQ: Estuary Temp, Salinity and DO Grab Sta #1 8/21/97 During Breach
 
Caption:  This chart shows the Russian River estuary temperature in Celsius, dissolved oxygen (DO) in parts per million (ppm) and salinity in parts per thousand (ppt) at Station #1 versus the depth in meters during an estuary breaching on August 21, 1997. Dissolved oxygen is much improved from pre-breaching conditions (see previous Topic) with dissolved oxygen well above stressful levels at all depths. Salinity of the water increased during the breaching as sea water intruded. This station is immediately upstream of the mouth of the Russian River (see Picture tab for map). Data provided by Merritt-Smith Consulting (1998) from a study performed for Sonoma County. See InfoLinks for more information on study methods and results.
