Abstract

This multi-year study quantifies the distribution and density of aquatic vertebrates throughout Lookout Creek stream network, including Mack, McRae and Upper Lookout Creeks. We are examining how predictable and consistent the densities and sizes of cutthroat trout and coastal giant salamanders are throughout the network and whether they fluctuate synchronously with vertebrates sizes and densities in Mack Creek that have been measured since 1987 (AS006). We are also examining biomass and condition of individuals across sites. Density and developmental stage of coastal tailed frog tadpoles are noted. We use electroshocking in discrete blocked reaches (depletion and mark-recapture methodologies) to collect individuals that are then weighed, measured and released. Site specific characteristics are measured at each sampling event, including wetted widths and water depths. Broader landscape metrics, including stream gradient and watershed area, were calculated for sites.

Purpose
  • Stream networks expand and contract seasonally; these changes in stream network connectivity affect transfer of matter and energy across trophic levels and between aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems (Ward 1989, Gregory et al. 1991). Although many organisms that live in the headwaters of the stream network are well adapted to seasonal low flows (Frady et al. 2007, Banks et al. 2007), some organisms (e.g., trout) may experience stress from reduced summer habitat and instream food, increased water temperature, and increased vulnerability to predators (Berger and Gresswell 2009). Climate change has the potential to further contract summer stream networks and lead to reduced viability of trout populations in small streams (Wenger et al. 2011, Penaluna et al. 2015). Because long-term research in Mack Creek at the Andrews Forest on two co-occurring aquatic vertebrate species, Mack Creek cutthroat trout, and coastal giant salamander, has revealed complex population dynamics and variable responses to hydrologic variability (Dodds et al. 2012; Arismendi et al. 2020), we are interested in examining whether other stream reaches show these same or different dynamics.
  • Trout and salamanders are expected to have very different responses to climate change and stream drying because of their habitat requirements and mobility. Areh salamanders able to inhabit and dominate smaller or more disconnected streams than trout? In this project, we are extending our study of these top predators to examine how stream trophic structures differ from headwaters to larger streams across the Lookout Creek stream network. This research will allow us to examine how varying instream and aquatic-terrestrial connectivity influences the ways in which instream predators, fish and salamanders, shape food webs and ecosystem dynamics.

Abstract
  • The H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest is a living laboratory that provides unparalleled opportunities for the study of forest and stream ecosystems in the central Cascade Range of Oregon. Since 1980, as a part of the National Science Foundation Long Term Ecological Research (NSF-LTER) program, the Andrews Experimental Forest has become a leader in the analysis of forest and stream ecosystem dynamics.
  • Long-term field experiments and measurement programs have focused on climate dynamics, streamflow, water quality, and vegetation succession. Currently researchers are working to develop concepts and tools needed to predict effects of natural disturbance, land use, and climate change on ecosystem structure, function, and species composition.
  • The Andrews Experimental Forest is administered cooperatively by the USDA Forest Service Pacific Northwest Research Station, Oregon State University and the Willamette National Forest. Funding for the research program comes from the National Science Foundation (NSF), US Forest Service Pacific Northwest Research Station, Oregon State University, and other sources.

Study Area Description
  • Long-Term Ecological Research
    The Andrews Forest is situated in the western Cascade Range of Oregon, and covers the entire 15,800-acre (6400-ha) drainage basin of Lookout Creek. Elevation ranges from 1350 to 5340 feet (410 to 1630 m). Broadly representative of the rugged mountainous landscape of the Pacific Northwest, the Andrews Forest contains excellent examples of the region's conifer forests and associated wildlife and stream ecosystems. These forests are among the tallest and most productive in the world, with tree heights of often greater than 250 ft (75 m). Streams are steep, cold and clean, providing habitat for numerous aquatic organisms.

Methods

Method Steps

Field Methods - AS011
  • Backpack electroshocking to sample aquatic vertebrates used two methods: mark-recapture and depletion sampling. The sampling was conducted by several groups over time. All sampling involved placing block nets at the upper and lower extent of the study reach, then electroshocking and capture of individuals. Individuals were anesthetized before weighing and measuring of their length and allowed to recover fully before being released in the stream. At multiple transects in each study reach, wetted widths and five or more depths were measured after electroshocking was completed. Data were entered from field data sheets and quality checked using length/weight graphs.
  • sampling was consistently mark-recapture electroshocking with an upstream and downstream pass. This method involved two days of sampling using a single electroshocker and capture with multiple dip netters. On Day 1, all individuals that were captured during shocking, using one pass up then one pass down, were weighed, measured and marked then released. On Day 2, the same area was resampled using same effort for one pass up and one pass down and all individuals captured, measured, weighed and those with marks noted, then released.
  • sampling was electroshocking to depletion with multiple passes upstream and downstream on a single day. Abundances in this database are from the electroshocking at the beginning of the SCALER field experiment in each reach. Two backpack electroshockers, two shocking netters, and a kick seine netter were the sampling team.
  • sampling involved 1, 2 or 3 equal-effort passes to sample fish and salamanders from each reach on a single day. Frogs were not sampled.
  • involved two days of sampling using electroshocking and capture with dip nets. On Day 1 all individuals that were observed during shocking were captured, weighed, measured and marked then released. On Day 2, the same area was resampled and individuals (re)captured, measured, marks noted, and released.
Processing Procedures - AS011
  • Broader landscape metrics (entity 3): Watershed area, channel gradient and high resolution GPS locations of study reaches were calculated from 2014 LiDAR imagery, 1 m DEM, and NHD+ layers using ArcGIS Desktop 10.5.1, https://www.esri.com/, with the Spatial Analyst extension. Some points from field GPS had to be adjusted slightly to match; the flowlines on the accumulation grid. Channeln gradient was calculated as the difference in elevation (m) over a 100m reach centered on the study reach and represented as percent.

Sampling Description
  • To quantify and compare the sizes and abundances of aquatic vertebrates throughout the stream network at the HJ Andrews Experimental Forest, we selected multiple sampling locations on Lookout Creek, McRae Creek and Mack Creek. Sites were distributed along the elevational gradient for each stream. In addition, the upstream most location of cutthroat trout was noted several years and an additional site 30-50 m above the end of fish was sampled to examine the sizes and abundances of amphibians. Sampling occurred during low summer flows in July and August. Captured aquatic vertebrates included trout, dace, tailed frogs and salamanders
