Notes"This study examined environmental factors that affect deep-pool use by adult summer steelhead Oncorhynchus mykiss in Steamboat Creek, Umpqua River basin, Oregon." (from the Abstract) The study found that much deep pool use was dependent on physical characteristics, noting that there was a gradient from "long, shaded deep pools with a coarse substrate and colder bottoms (which fish used) to shorter, shallower, sunny pools with fine particulate substrate, homogeneous water temperatures, and warmer bottoms (which fish did not use)."
