Sediment: SF Garcia - Percent Fines <0.85 mm, McBain&Trush 1999 |
|
Caption: This chart shows percent fines <0.85 mm in pool-tail gravels for various sites in South Fork Garcia in 1999. McBain and Trush (2000) used dry-sieve analysis to determine size distribution, while the Garcia TMDL threshold of 14% for sediment less than 0.85 mm refers to wet sieve samples. To make wet and dry samples comparable, the reference value shown is adjusted to 10.3 % by the IFR KRIS project using methods of Shirazi and Seim (1979). All but two sites had very low fines in this category indicating that they are unlikely to be limiting salmonid spawning success. See InfoLinks for more information.
