Fish community and substrate data from tributaries to the Mohawk River (ver. 2.0, January 2024)

Description

The dataset is composed of three data tables containing information from electrofishing and pebble count surveys conducted in tributaries to the Mohawk River in central and eastern New York during 2019 and 2023. 20 sites were surveyed in 2019, and 19 of those same sites were resurveyed in 2023. The 'Schoharie Creek below Bridge at Burtonsville NY' site was not resurveyed in 2023 because persistently elevated flows and turbidity at that location prohibited sampling. The first table contains information on the sampled reaches, the second table contains fish collection data, and the third table contains pebble count data.
