Abstract

This user's guide and reference document describes the physical features of the Salmon River Basin, Idaho, stream channels that represent "natural conditions" for fish habitat-that is, streams that have not been influenced by major human disturbances. The data base was created to assist biologists and resource managers. It describes resource conditions that can be achieved through management objectives.

Keywords

desired future conditions, habitat variables, multiscale analysis, channel features
