      <abstract>Interactions between geomorphic processes at multiple scales shape the distributions of habitats, species, and life stages that a river can support. Understanding these hierarchical processes may be helpful for proactive monitoring and restoration of native Western Brook Lamprey (Lampetra richardsoni) and Pacific Lamprey (Entosphenus tridentatus) in Pacific Northwest rivers. The processes creating thick, fine-grained sediment deposits that lamprey larvae rely on as rearing habitat were assessed in part through field sampling in the Umpqua River basin, southwestern Oregon, USA. Local factors, such as substrate, boulders, wood, and water, that control sediment erosion and deposition, affecting larval lamprey habitat, were systematically mapped with a total station at the reach-scale for two reaches along Little Wolf, Slide, and South Fork Calapooya Creeks in the Umpqua River Basin, southwest Oregon.
This overall dataset includes: 1) GIS layers defining the extent and grain-size of substrate patches, extent of the wetted water surface, locations of boulders, and locations of large wood for all six study reaches that are included in a file geodatabase, 2) a csv file of the raw particle counts used to determine the grain size of the sediment patches, and 3) a csv file of the lengths of larval lamprey detected in the reaches. The datasets were developed by completing geomorphic and larval lamprey surveys in 2014. This documentation describes the grain-size data for the upstream and downstream reaches of Little Wolf, Slide, and South Fork Calapooya Creeks from particle counts completed in July and August 2014.</abstract>
      <purpose>Surficial particle counts were completed to support assessment of larval lamprey habitat in the Umpqua River basin, southwest Oregon. These data were combined with detailed geomorphic mapping used to assess the relation between habitat features, such as wood, boulders, substrate, and water, with larval lamprey presence.</purpose>

        <horizpar>No formal horizontal accuracy tests were performed. Field surveys were completed with a TopCon GTS-211D total station, external Spectra Precision Ranger 3 data collector with Survey Pro field software, and stadia rod with prism. The total station (TOPCON 1996) has a measurement accuracy of 0.003 meter. The number of total station set-ups ranged from 2-3 per reach. Post-survey comparisons of repeat survey points within a reach were typically within 0.05 meter, the approximate maximum within-reach error. Using a stadia rod and prism, contacts along patches of sediment having an area of at least 1 square meter were traced at approximately 0.5-meter spacing. Survey coordinates were exported from the data logger to a text file for post processing. Global positioning systems coordinates, in Universal Transverse Mercator-Zone 10 North, from control points were assigned the survey to georeference the surveys and imported into ArcGIS. The georeferenced datasets likely have a georeferenced positional error of up to 10 meters but retain the relative, within-survey error of less than 0.05 meter.</horizpar>

        <procdesc>Two 100-meter-long representative reaches on each stream were selected for surveying. A measuring tape was aligned along the approximate center of the active channel. Rebar was placed at upstream and downstream ends of the reach to mark the reach bounds. Each reach was further subdivided into 10-meter transects. Flagging was used to mark the left and right bank where these transect breaks occurred.</procdesc>

        <procdesc>The six field reaches were surveyed during July and August of 2014 with a total station and stadia rod with prism. Five main channel components were recorded for each of the surveys, including substrate patch delineation, water’s edge, location of base of bank, presence and size of large wood, and locations of boulders smaller than the minimum mapping unit.</procdesc>

Boulders, bedrocks outcrops, and wood forming the bottom of the channel that were greater than 1 square meter in size were also traced as part of delineating channel substrate. Additionally, the edge of water and base of bank were also surveyed at about 0.5-meter spacing or greater depending on the curvature between points.</procdesc>
