Shafroth 20161230 Publication (Other) Scientific and Technical Report Series No. 3 Grand Junction, Colorado Colorado Mesa University Ruth Powell Hutchins Water Center http://www.coloradomesa.edu/water-center/scientific-technical-reports.html We mapped surface water from high resolution photography taken on September 16, 2010, at a stream flow of 96.5 m3/s (3,410 ft3/s, Cisco gage). We subdivided surface water into six categories: primary channel, secondary channel, split flow channel, backwater, isolated pool, and tributary channel, similar to that of fish habitat methods used extensively in Oregon. Channel types that are not primary channel are considered ‘off-channel’. Channel mapping was done at low flow to estimate habitat quality for birds and fish. 20100916 observed Complete None planned -110.044026293 -109.05139925 39.134231716 38.063937525 ISO 19115 Topic Category biota environment inlandWaters None riparian conservation planning habitat suitability tamarisk USGS Metadata Identifier USGS:5aa6d5a0e4b0b1c392ed67a3 None Colorado River Upper Colorado River San Juan County Grand County Canyonlands National Park Arches National Park Moab Utah None.

Producer defined FID Internal feature number. Esri Sequential unique whole numbers that are automatically generated. Shape Feature geometry. Esri Coordinates defining the features. Feat_Type Channel types determined by number of channels, position and through flow. Channel types are either fast (main, secondary, split flow, tributary), or slow (backwater, isolated pool), with one designated as a gravel pit (artificial feature). Producer defined BW Backwater - one side open to flow Producer defined Gravel Pit Artificial feature - abandoned and flooded gravel pit Producer defined IP Isolated Pool - not connected through surface flow Producer defined Main Primary channel - main path of water flow Producer defined Sec A flow-through division of the main channel that may be up to half of the total flow. Channel is separated from main channel with permanent (woody) vegetation. Producer defined SF Split flow channel is a division of the main channel that may be up to half of the the total river flow. Split flow channel is divided from the main flow by impermanent features such as a mid-channel bar and is visible only at lower flow. Producer defined Trib Tributary channels are created and maintained by flow coming into the main river from side canyons or tributaries. Producer defined Shape_Area Square meters of feature shape Producer defined Positive real numbers that are automatically generated. Stillness Stillness of water as assigned by channel type.
