Fish collections at Coweeta LTER 100 m stream sites from 1991 to 1998

We monitored fish populations at three sites in a southern Appalachian stream system during a 40-month study. Electro-fishing was performed biannually in spring (May) and late summer(Aug-Oct), to assess stream fish populations, production and recruitment in the LTER 100m sites: Coweeta Creek, Lower Ball Creek, and Upper Ball Creek. These data will be used with habitat availability estimates recorded during the same time periods to see if fish assemblages structure and production of species differ along the gradient in concordance with changing abundance of patch types.
