Description
TIR remote sensing was used to map stream temperatures for the Warm Springs River, Mill Creek, Beaver Creek and Shitike Creek. The data was collected on August 1st and 2nd, 2001 during the mid-afternoon in order to capture heat of summer, heat of the day conditions Analysis of the thermal accuaracy of the TIR images compared to in-stream sensors was well within the specified tolerance of +/- 0.5 degrees C.
The Warm Springs River showed overall warming in the downstream direction. Differences were observed in the longitudinal heating rate between reaches and two segments longer than 5 miles showed little or nor heating. Beaver Creek and Mill Creek exhibited significant reach-level variation in longitudinal temperature patterns. The spring complex on Mill Creek was responsible for making Mill Creek a cooling source to the Warm Springs River and was not documented on USFS 1:24k downstream warming with little reach-level variation in the longitudinal temperature profile. More detailed information can be found in Aerial Surveys in the Warm Springs River Basin, Thermal Infrared and Color Videography (February 2002), by Watershed Sciences.
Project Benefit
Detailed stream temperatures will identify areas for restoration activities and result in projects geared toward improving or maintaining water quality in anadromous fish bearing streams.
