Fish and temperature data from Hinkle Creek summer 2021

These data were all collected in summer 2021 at Hinkle Creek watershed, a headwater ecosystem in a managed forest landscape in western Oregon. The data set has two components. The first component of the data set includes information about age 1 and older fish collected from two sections of the South Fork of Hinkle Creek in summer 2021 using multiple pass depletion backback electrofishing methods. Electrofishing in these two reaches were conducted in July 2021 and again in September 2021 – each month has its own csv data file. Information in these two components of the data set include the total length (mm), weight (g) and species of fish (Oncorhynchus clarkii; Oncorhynchus mykiss). We also include data on which pass each fish was captured so depletion-based population estimates can be calculated. The second component of this study is stream temperature from the mainstem of the South Fork Hinkle Creek, and also includes two data files. The first data file includes stream temperature (in Celsius) from summer 2021 collected using a HOBO data logger within 20m of each of the two fish survey locations. The second data file includes maximum daily temperatures from each site in 2021 and from data collected at these sites from 2006 to 2011, before the Archie Creek Fire impacted this site (in Sept. 2020).
