Channel Islands, Kelp Forest Monitoring, Sea Temperature, 1993-2007
공공데이터포털
This dataset from the Channel Islands National Park's Kelp Forest Monitoring Program has subtidal temperature data taken at permanent monitoring sites. Since 1993, remote temperature loggers manufactured by Onset Computer Corporation were deployed at each site approximately 10-20 cm from the bottom in a underwater housing. Since 1993, three models of temperature loggers (HoboTemp (tm), StowAway (R) and Tidbit(R)) were used to collect temperature data every 1-5 hours depending on the model used.
Channel Islands, Kelp Forest Monitoring, Survey, 1m Quadrat, 1982-2007
공공데이터포털
This dataset from the Channel Islands National Park's Kelp Forest Monitoring Program has measurements of the abundance (density) of relatively abundant selected sedentary indicator species. The summary data presented here represents the mean density per square meter. Sampling is conducted annually between the months of May-October, so the Time data in this file is July 1 of each year (a nominal value). The actual measurements were taken at various depths, so the Depth data in this file is the depth of the station's temperature logger, which is a typical depth.
Klamath Stream Monitoring Data Package 2011-2022
공공데이터포털
This dataset contains monitoring data for streams at Crater Lake NP, Lassen Volcanic NP, Oregon Caves NMP, Redwood NSP, and Whiskeytown NRA. Streams are significant and productive resources that are influenced by activities both inside and outside parks boundaries. Because healthy streams are vital to park landscapes and ecosystems, we sample physical, biological, and chemical parameters. These varied parameters allow us to measure change over time and across the landscape. Thus, we can detect trends and assess impacts. Since 2011, the Klamath Network has been monitoring streams in five parks. The protocol combines monitoring water quality characteristics of streams, such as the chemical and physical conditions, with monitoring the aquatic communities that the stream supports, such as the fish, plants, and macroinvertebrates. The combined protocol is extremely effective as it can provide both snapshots in time of water quality and habitat properties, as well as long term indications of health from the living assemblages. Objectives are to: Determine the status and trends of conditions in wadeable streams. Assist parks with “impaired quality waters,” also known as “303d” lists as defined by the Clean Water Act. Assist parks with monitoring of “Outstanding National Resource Waters” or Tier 3 waters as defined by the Clean Water Act. We measure/collect: Physical environment including substrate composition, depth, gradient, discharge, stream width, and bank height. Water anions, cations, and nutrients. Water quality parameters including dissolved oxygen, temperature, specific conductivity, turbidity, and pH. Algal samples to determine periphyton biomass. Benthic macroinvertebrates. Visual Encounter Surveys for amphibians. Fish populations. Photographs to provide visual comparisons over time.

Klamath Vegetation Monitoring Data Package
공공데이터포털
This dataset contains monitoring data for vegetation at Crater Lake NP, Lassen Volcanic NP, Lava Beds NM, Oregon Caves NMP, Redwood NSP, and Whiskeytown NRA. A core concept of the Klamath Inventory and Monitoring Networks vegetation monitoring protocol is that assessing the composition, structure, and function of vegetation communities, can be used to evaluate the ecological integrity of wider park habitats. Therefore, monitoring vegetation change is imperative to detecting and understanding the status and trends in park ecosystems. Objectives are to: sample vegetation and environmental parameters every 3 years using a 3 year revisit frequency; monitor status and trends in vegetation composition; monitor status and trends in vegetation structure and function.
