New monitoring stations in the upper Santiam and McKenzie Rivers
New monitoring is part of the Willamette River Basin's Next Generation Water Observing System.
In 2023, new monitoring stations were installed in spawning reaches of the upper Santiam and McKenzie Basins. Gage installations are planned for the Clackamas, Fall Creek, and Middle Fork Willamette Basins in 2024. These river corridors are used by spring Chinook Salmon for spawning and rearing. Water level and temperature data from these stations provide new insights on how changing climate conditions affect habitat conditions for spring Chinook Salmon.
