Final 2012 Field Work

Trout Unlimited Canada staff members Mary and Simon were out in Duffins Creek last week retrieving temperature loggers.   These temperature loggers record the water temperature every 1/2 hour and store this information on a computer chip within the device.  These loggers were deployed in April at various locations around the watershed providing us temperature regime information for Duffins Creek.  Using this information, we can pinpoint "hot" spots and plan rehabilitation work to mitigate creek sections that are causing a warming up of Duffins Creek.
