During the summer of 1972 we sampled the Umpqua River estuary to determine distribution of fish populations. As a part of that study temperature and salinity data were collected monthly throughout the estuary. The environmental data should help explain the distributions of various fishes within the estuary and be useful...
Trapping migrating steelhead trout smolts was done in the spring and early summer of 1993 as part of the 1990 Umpqua National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan. Calf Creek was monitored to "validate smolt output estimates" and to "determine if changes in habitat quality are occurring." (Introduction)
Trapping migrating steelhead trout smolts was done in the spring and early summers of 1991 and 1992 as part of the 1990 Umpqua National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan. Calf Creek was monitored to "validate smolt output estimates" and to "determine if changes in habitat quality are occurring." (Introduction)
Fish passing Winchester Dam view-window counting station on the North Umpqua River were enumerated. Figure 1 is a map of the Umpqua basin and denotes the counting station. The counts for summer steelhead, fall chinook, and sea-run cutthroat increased while those for winter steelhead, spring chinook, and coho decreased. By...
A study of the scales of Umpqua River spring chinook salmon was made from mid-September to December 1, 1951. The study was undertaken to determine the age composition and probable life history of spring Chinooks in this river. The study was made at the Oregon State College Fisheries Research Laboratory...
This report presents tables of suspended-sediment data collected from 1956 to 1967 at 10 sites in the Umpqua River basin. Computations based on these data indicate that average annual suspended-sediment yields at these sites range from 137 to 822 tons per square mile.
Because available data for the Umpqua River...
The Umpqua River estuary was seined and gilinetted during the summer of 1972 to estimate the composition and distribution of fishes. The number of species collected at most sites averaged from four to six per seine haul and was relatively constant throughout the estuary. The number of fish
collected per...
This report discusses anticipated problems associated with the pollution of the Umpqua River estuary in Oregon. The method of studying these problems by oceanographical techniques is outlined. Proposed studies relating to the Umpqua River Basin are examined.
Oceanographic data collected in the Umpqua River Estuary, Oregon, during the period April 26-27, 1961, are tabulated. Temperature, salinity, velocity, and dissolved oxygen were observed at various depths over one tidal cycle at a mid-channel anchor station located near the mouth of the river.
