1 Using Habitat Guilds to Develop Habitat Suitability Criteria for a Warmwater Stream Fish Assemblage Jason Persinger, Don Orth,, Tammy Newcomb
2 Shenandoah River Basin North Fork Shenandoah River 20% discharge 60% basin growth Growing concern IFIM Study Spring Hollow Rt. 648 Edinburg Winchester Dam Posey Hollow Laurel Hill Farm Covered Bridge Plains Mill
3 Habitat Suitability Criteria Original approach Important species Warmwater Streams High Diversity Habitat Guilds NFS 60 species 4 habitat guilds Image from Jenkins and Burkhead 1994
4 Objectives Test guild structure Develop habitat suitability criteria for fish species and habitat guilds Compare species and guild criteria
5 Methods Two sampling techniques Snorkeling Throwable anode electrofishing
6 Habitat Sampling Habitat measurements Depth Velocity Froude # Substrate Embeddedness Cover Distance to Cover
7 Guild Structure Depth (cm) Previously established Guilds Velocity (cm/s) Pool cover Open Pool Pool/Run Shallow Rheophilic Fast Generalist Riffle/Run Fast Riffle Vadas and Orth (2000) Guild Structure
8 Our Approach North Fork Shenandoah Guild Structure Depth (m) Velocity (m/s) Pool-Cover Pool-Run Fast Generalist Riffle
9 Guild Structure Tests Discriminant Analysis Squared distance between guilds Depth, velocity, Froude #, substrate, embeddedness, distance to cover, and cover Misclassification matrix
10 Criteria Development Nonparametric Tolerance Limits Depth & velocity Channel Index Substrate, cover, and embeddedness PHABSIM output
11 Guild Structure Results Squared distance Depth (m) significant distance between guilds P-values < Velocity (m/s) Pool-Cover Pool-Run Fast Generalist Riffle
12 Guild Structure Results Misclassification Matrix Highest % of data in proper guild Riffle 64.4% Fast generalist 58.9% Pool-cover 42.7% Only exception pool-run guild
13 Guild Placement Riffle Guild greenside darter mottled sculpin central stoneroller bluehead chub (J) river chub (Y) longnose dace Etheostoma blennioides Cottus bairdi Campostoma anomalum Nocomis leptocephalus Nocomis micropogon Rhinichthys cataractae Images from Jenkins and Burkhead 1994
14 Riffle Guild Comparison Mottled Sculpin Longnose Dace Riffle Depth (m)
15 Riffle Guild Comparison Mottled Sculpin Longnose Dace Riffle Velocity (m/s)
16 PHABSIM Model Output WUA (sq. ft) Depth and Velocity criteria only Mottled Sculpin Longnose Dace Discharge (cfs( cfs)
17 PHABSIM Model Output WUA (sq. ft) Depth and Velocity criteria only Mottled Sculpin Longnose Dace Riffle Guild Discharge (cfs( cfs)
18 25000 PHABSIM Model Output Depth, Velocity, and Channel Index WUA (Sq. ft) Mottled Sculpin Longnose Dace Discharge (cfs( cfs)
19 25000 PHABSIM Model Output Depth, Velocity, and Channel Index WUA (Sq. ft) Mottled Sculpin Longnose Dace Riffle Guild Discharge (cfs( cfs)
20 Fast generalist Guild potomac sculpin margined madtom roseyface shiner comely shiner satinfin shiner (A) spotfin shiner (A) bluehead chub (A) bull chub fallfish (J&Y) blacknose dace Guild Placement Cottus girardi Noturus insignis Notropis rubellus Notropis amoenus Cyprinella analostana Cyprinella spiloptera Nocomis leptocephalus Nocomis raneyi Semotilus corporalis Rhinichthys atratulus Images from Jenkins and Burkhead 1994
21 Fast Generalist Guild Comparison Margined Madtom Cyprinella sp. Fast Generalist Depth (m)
22 Fast Generalist Guild Comparison Margined Madtom Cyprinella sp. Fast Generalist Velocity (m/s)
23 PHABSIM Model Output WUA (Sq. ft) Depth and Velocity criteria only Margined Madtom Cyprinella sp Discharge (cfs( cfs)
24 PHABSIM Model Output WUA (Sq. ft) Depth and Velocity criteria only Margined Madtom Cyprinella sp. Fast Generalist Guild Discharge (cfs( cfs)
25 PHABSIM Model Output Depth, Velocity, and Channel Index WUA (Sq. ft) Margined Madtom Cyprinella sp Discharge (cfs( cfs)
26 PHABSIM Model Output Depth, Velocity, and Channel Index WUA (Sq. ft) Margined Madtom Cyprinella sp. Fast Generalist Guild Discharge (cfs( cfs)
27 Summary Guild structure Fish assemblage Habitat differences Criteria development Most abundant species Species vs. Guild Response to flow very similar
28 Recommendations Guild or Representative Criteria Viable option Considerations Effect of common species Importance of rare species Guild structure realism
