Topic	Sediment: Horace's Creek - Percent Fines <5.6 mm, McBain&Trush 1999

 

Caption:  This chart shows cumulative percent substrate less than 5.6 mm for Horace's Creek in 1999. Two sample sites are above the adjusted salmonid spawning suitability reference of 26% for fines <6.5 mm. The Garcia EPA TMDL set a target of 30% for fines <6.5 mm based on wet sieve analysis but KRIS IFR staff used conversion from Shirazi and Seim (1979) to adjust this target for dry sieve methods, which were used by McBain and Trush (2000). Sand levels are much higher than fines less than 0.85 mm in Horace's Creek and explain in part the relatively poor permeability scores (see Horace's Creek permeability Topic). See InfoLinks for more information.
