Thompson, R.F., 2007, Transects used for pre- and postconstruction data collection at constructed emergent sandbar habitats downstream from Gavins Point Dam near River Miles 761.4 and 769.8 on the Missouri River: U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/P9TOSLH8.

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. This dataset represents the transects used for hydrographic surveys of Emergent Sandbar Habitat at two sites near river miles 761.4 and 769.8 downstream of Gavins Point Dam on the Missouri River.

Purpose

Original transects were laid out from highbank to highbank, approximately perpendicular to the direction of flow, spaced approximately 500 feet apart, and extended approximately two miles upstream from the upstream ends of the construction zones and approximately two miles downstream from the downstream ends of the construction zones. For post-construction surveys, additional transects were added between the original transects near the constructed sandbars to provide additional detail.
