Mean and standard error of the potential fraction of solar radiation arriving at Pine, Bogard, and Bailey Creeks.
(a) Pine Creek between stations PC4 and PC1 before (2005) and after (2008) January 2008 Phase 3 conifer removal, (b) Bogard Creek between stations BO5 and BO1 before (2005) and after (2008) January 2008 Phase 3 conifer removal, and (c) Bailey Creek between stations BR6 and BR1 before (2003) and after (2007) September 2006 conifer removal. * indicates significantly different at P<0.05. ** indicates significantly different at P<0.005.
Figure 5.
Seven day running average daily maximum water temperature (°C) on Pine Creek.
Station PC4 was located immediately upstream of the areas treated during Phases 1-3. Station PC3 was located immediately downstream of the areas treated during Phase 1, and station PC1 was located immediately downstream of the areas treated during Phases 2 and 3. Q = mean discharge (m3 min-1) from Jun 15 – Aug 31, P = percent of mean annual precipitation, Max AT = mean of daily maximum air temperature (°C) from Jun 15 – Aug 31, AT = mean of average daily air temperature (°C) from Jun 15 – Aug 31.
Figure 6.
Seven day running average daily maximum water temperature (°C) on Bogard Creek.
Station BO5 was located immediately upstream of the areas treated during Phases 1-3. Station BO3 was located immediately downstream of the areas treated during Phase 1, and station BO1 was located immediately downstream of the areas treated during Phases 2 and 3. Q = mean discharge (m3 min-1) from June 15 - August 31, P = percent of mean annual precipitation, Max AT = mean of daily maximum air temperature (°C) from June 15 - August 31, AT = mean of average daily air temperature (°C) from June 15 - August 31. Note: the temperature logger for station BO1 in 2004 was broken, so the 2004 figure shows data collected at station BO2.
Figure 7.
Seven day running average daily maximum water temperature (°C) on Bailey Creek.
Stations BR6 and BR1 were located immediately upstream and downstream of the areas treated during the Bailey Project, respectively. Q = mean discharge (m3 min-1) from Jun 15 – Aug 31, P = percent of mean annual precipitation, Max AT = mean of daily maximum air temperature (°C) from Jun 15 – Aug 31, AT = mean of average daily air temperature (°C) from Jun 15 – Aug 31.
Figure 8.
Mean and standard error of soil moisture within the Pine-Bogard Phase 2 August 2005 treatment area.
Measurements were made at the 15 and 45 cm depths at Stations C and D of the reference and treatment transects. % P = percent of mean annual precipitation. Lower values of soil moisture tension correspond to wetter soils.
Figure 9.
Mean and standard error of soil moisture within the Pine-Bogard Phase 3 January 2008 treatment area.
Measurements were made at the 15 and 45 cm depths at Stations A and B of the reference and treatment transects. % P = percent of mean annual precipitation. Lower values of soil moisture tension correspond to wetter soils.
