NotesMajor Professor: Dr. Jim Hall. "Populations of coastal cutthroat trout, Oncorhynchus clarki clarki, were sampled in 16 headwater streams from logged (20-30 and 40-60 years ago) and unlogged (stand age 125-150 years) basins. Basins logged 20-30 years ago supported the widest range of mean biomass of age 1+ or older cutthroat trout (g/m2) and the widest range in frequency of large woody debris (number of pieces/100 m) and pools (number/100 m), including the lowest and highest levels of these variables encountered in the study."
