Notes | The Steamboat Creek watershed is both an important source of timber and provides critical spawning and rearing habitrat for steelhead trout. This study compares Steamboat Creek Basin stream temperatures from 1969-1989 with an unlogged watershed, Boulder Creek. While Boulder Creek stream temperatures remained unchanged, temperatures in most Streamboat Creek streams dropped over the period studied, indicating a partial recovery still in progress of riparian vegetation following logging. |
