Methods
Sampling Description: Contents of 1-m2 throwtraps at 6 FCE locations Method Step - Description: At each throwtrap emergent plant stems were counted. Each throwtrap was then bar-seined for fish invertebrates and other organisms all of which were returned to the laboratory for further analysis including total counts of each species. Instrumentation: Standard laboratory balances micrometers graduated cylinders The throwtrap used to sample was 85cm (H) x 100cm (W) x 100cm (L) The perimeter of the trap was covered with 3/16 inch mesh. Throwtrap data for emergent plant stems; each throwtrap was then bar-seined for fish invertebrates and other organisms Unit of abundance = IndCountInt, Unit of biomass = NA
