Distribution of Fishes in the Red River of the North Basin on Multivariate Environmental Gradients

Gradient Analyses

Table 1. United States Geological Survey water quality and streamflow sampling stations utilized for canonical correspondence analysis, with years of data available and total number of fish sampling sites for 46 stream reaches in the Red River basin. Includes reaches in the Red River Valley (RRV), North Central Hardwoods (NCH), Northern Lakes and Forests (NLF), Northern Glaciated Plains (NGP), and Northern Minnesota Wetlands (NMW) ecoregions and ecoregion transition areas (TRA).
