Summary

Water temperature data were collected in summer 2018 and 2019. Temperature data loggers were deployed in tributary confluences and the mainstem of the lower Priest River between Priest Lake Outlet Dam and the confluence with the Pend Oreille River. Data loggers were checked every 2 to 3 weeks throughout the summer. Data for Lagrangian longitudinal thermal profiles were obtained on August 21, 2018 and August 7, 2019.

Purpose

Water temperature data were collected to quantify thermal heterogeneity in the Priest River basin. The data will be used to identify potential drivers of thermal heterogeneity and to examine the responses of aquatic organisms to these patterns.
