Temparature --- FISH RELATED

  • Twelve degrees Celsius (54 F) is the minimum for HBC growth and 16 degrees Celsius/ 61 F, is optimal. (NPS CFMP-EA_ pg 78)

Temparature --- DAM RELATED

  • Warmest dam release temperatures occur July- November, but because of cooler fall temeratures and low sun angle, warmest downstream temeratures at the LCR (RM 62) and Middle Granite Gorge (RM 127)occur July-October (RValdez)
