The StreamNet Data Store is a searchable archive of data sets related to fish and other aquatic resources that are not of the specific data types included in the main StreamNet database. These data sets come from many different sources and are provided for download in their original formats. To add your own data set to the Data Store, use our Data Publishing Service.
StreamNet did not participate in creation of most of these data sets, and we are not able to answer questions about those we did not help develop. For questions about the data sets available from this page, please contact the originator of the particular data set.

| Purpose of Data Set
|
Each year during our seining of juvenile fall Chinook salmon in the Snake and Salmon rivers, we obtain temperature data to characterize the environmental conditions during fish collections. This data is then plotted to show temperature trends in our annual project report.
|
| Summary / Abstract
|
This data set contains temperatures of the Snake and Salmon rivers obtained from thermographs maintained by the Idaho Power Company.
