USFWS Juvenile White Sturgeon Monitoring, San Joaquin River

Description

The Central Valley Project Improvement Act (CVPIA) funds habitat improvement work and associated monitoring in the Central Valley of California to increase salmonid populations in furtherance of meeting CVPIA fish doubling goals. This data package contains three datasets for juvenile White Sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus) monitoring in the San Joaquin River (SJR) conducted by the US Fish and Wildlife Service, Lodi Fish and Wildlife Office. After two years of this experimental sampling program, it was discontinued due to low catches of White Sturgeon. SJR_Juvenile_WST_Set Data This dataset contains data on an experimental sampling program using trammel nets and setlines to catch juvenile White Sturgeon in the San Joaquin River. Sets were made at targeted locations from November-January in 2016 and 2017. One White Sturgeon (1000 mm fork length) was captured in a trammel net in 2016. SJR_Juvenile_WST_Catch Data This dataset contains data for individual fish caught in trammel nets or setlines in the San Joaquin River. Species and fork length were recorded for all fish. For White Sturgeon, girth, maturation, and tag information are provided. SJR_Fish_Taxonomy Data This dataset contains data for fish codes used in the Catch datafile. For each species that was captured, the Species codes are listed with the corresponding Interagency Ecological Program code, common name, taxonomy (Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species), and whether or not the species is native to the region.
