NotesThis paper reports on a study to document potential burrowing habitat for larval Pacific lamprey and Western brook lamprey in the Umpqua Basin. Additionally, the study examined water temperatures that were favorable for smallmouth, an introduced species that preys on lamprey. Finally, the authors looked at factors that support burrowing habitat heterogeneity on the reach scale.
