Topic Habitat: Canopy in Pena Cr and Tribs 1997-1998
 
Caption:  This chart shows the canopy density in Pena Creek and its tributaries as measured during 1997 and 1998 California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG) habitat typing surveys. Streams in the chart are sorted by Strahler order (with larger streams at the top), and reaches are numbered upstream beginning at stream mouths. Canopy density was low in many streams, especially Pena (fourth order) and lower Pechaco (third order). Overall, 8 of the 17 reaches had greater than 80% canopy. Lack of canopy can contribute to stream warming. CDFG stream survey reports state, "In general, revegetation projects are considered when canopy density is less than 80%." Click Map to see canopy density for the stream reaches. See InfoLinks for more information.
