Topic Temperature: Floating Weekly Avg. at Porter Cr.-Lwr (PORT1), 1999-2001
 
Caption:  This Chart shows the floating weekly average water temperature at Porter Creek (site PORT1) for the years 1999-2001. Maximum floating weekly average water temperatures (MWAT) exceeded 17.0°C in all three years, and exceeded 19.0°C in two of three years. Based on a review of steelhead growth studies, Sullivan et al. (2000) found that compared to optimum temperatures, an MWAT of 17.0°C reduced steelhead growth by 10%, and an MWAT of 19.0°C reduced growth by 20%. See InfoLinks for more information. Temperature data comes from automated water temperature data probes placed in the Russian River and its tributaries by the Sonoma County Water Agency (SCWA).
