Simulation of Streamflow Using a Multidimensional Flow Model for White Sturgeon Habitat, Kootenai River near Bonners Ferry, Idaho—Supplement to Scientific Investigations Report 2005–5230

Figure - refer to figure caption for alternative text description

Figure 11. White sturgeon spawning event locations and simulated average and maximum velocity for five streamflows at cross sections positioned every 100 meters along the meander, straight, and braided reaches, Kootenai River near Bonners Ferry, Idaho. Spawning event per unit effort (SEPUE) was computed as the number of times fertilized eggs were detected on an egg mat resting on the riverbed at a sampling site divided by the time the mat was deployed (Paragamian and Wakkinen, Idaho Department of Fish and Game, written commun., 2005).
