Detailed SR Function Description
For both depth and velocity, the composite channel curve of Mountain Sucker 1+/2+ matches
habitat suitability. Mountain Sucker 1+/2+ HSC curves for depth and velocity. The curve shows all channel types (main, side and summer channels) of the Fraser River gravel analyzed together.
Velocity units converted from cm/s to m/s.
