    | 
   Caption:  This Chart shows the floating weekly average water temperature at five sites in Squaw Creek watershed for the year 2000.   Maximum floating weekly average water temperatures (MWAT) exceeded 19.0°C at the 2 of 5 sites, and exceeded 17.0°C at all 5 sites.  Based on a review of steelhead growth studies, Sullivan et al. (2000) found that compared to optimum temperatures, an MWAT of 17.0°C reduced steelhead growth by 10%, and an MWAT of 19.0°C reduced growth by 20%.  See InfoLinks for more information.  Temperature data comes from automated water temperature data probes placed in the Russian River and its tributaries by the California Department of Fish and Game.
