The value "Percent pools" represents the proportion of
the total surface area of a stream reach that consists
of habitat units defined as pools. We calculated percent
pools for the
USFS Region
6 tabular data by dividing pool area by total area
for all habitat types. Percent pools was present as a
reach characteristic in the
ODFW
GIS data and in the ODFW paper summaries from which
the
Lincoln District data
were entered.
We averaged percent pools for each 6th field separately
for each data source. To normalize results, we weighted
this average by the length of each reach. We then averaged
percent pools across all data sources in the summary shapefile
aqhab_odfw_final.zip,
weighting this final average by the length surveyed from
each data source.
