Summary

These data were released prior to the October 1, 2016 effective date for the USGS’s policy dictating the review, approval, and release of scientific data as referenced in USGS Survey Manual Chapter 502.8 Fundamental Science Practices: Review and Approval of Scientific Data for Release. In 2009, the Kootenai Tribe of Idaho released and implemented the Kootenai River Habitat Restoration Master Plan. This plan aimed to restore, enhance, and maintain the Kootenai River habitat and landscape to support and sustain habitat conditions for aquatic species and animal populations. In support of these restoration efforts, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Kootenai Tribe of Idaho, conducted high-resolution multibeam echosounder [...]

Purpose

Bathymetric data were collected within the braided reach as part of a long-term monitoring program. The extent of these surveys was near RM 152.2 near Ambush Rock upstream to approximately RM 159.1 downstream of the confluence of the Moyie River with the Kootenai River. The bathymetric data were collected at 17 cross sections to monitor aggradation and degradation of the channel bed to support on-going river restoration efforts in the braided reach.
