These data are compiled and maintained by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife with the cooperation of monitoring practitioners. Updates and associated outreach are intended to occur on an annual basis. Data were created from several sources and existing datasets: some monitoring areas were accurately depicted using the USGS National Hydrography Dataset (NHD), other monitoring areas were approximated using the monitoring point location and the USGS StreamStats tool to depict the watershed area above that point. The areas are intended to represent the approximate extent of sampling within sub-basins, watershed areas, or regions. For example, the spatial extent of monitoring using a fixed count station is approximated by accounting for all anadromous fish habitat upstream of the sampling location. Therefore, the area is approximated by entering the monitoring location coordinates into the StreamStats tool. The resulting shapefile is then examined to ensure the watershed area did not include habitat above dams or barriers to migration. Areas were clipped when needed. The data user should recognize that errors may have occurred during production of this dataset, changes may have occurred to the external sources used post transfer, and for other possible reasons. The population metrics summarized in the associated tabular data may be regarded as spatially limited, temporally limited, and not considered a complete estimate for the population being described. The data user is advised to refer to the annual reports cited in the Source field from the tabular data for additional details regarding monitoring within the area spatially depicted.The file was updated during the fall and winter of 2022 and includes select location data from 1978 through 2022 but is not considered comprehensive. The California Monitoring Plan (CMP) salmonid monitoring areas provides an approximation of the spatial extent of past and present monitoring efforts for coho salmon, Chinook salmon, and steelhead. The areas represent the approximate extent of sampling within sub-basins, watershed areas, or regions. The dataset includes population monitoring areas in California coastal watersheds and some coverage of monitoring areas within the Trinity River and Klamath River basins. This dataset does not include all locations for existing or past monitoring programs. The population metrics summarized within these areas are focused on the viable salmonid population (VSP) key characteristics: abundance, productivity, diversity, and spatial structure. The spatial information is intended to be compatible and link with tabular salmonid population data using the GEO_ID_POL field.

CDFW Population Name of the watershed or sub watershed that the point estimate parameters describe (i.e., Olema Creek watershed within the Lagunitas Creek watershed when the point estimate describes just the Olema Creek watershed). CDFW Species The fish species that the population and point estimate parameters describe [Coho salmon, Chinook salmon, steelhead]. CDFW Life Stage Life stage(s) that the metric describes. Usually designated by the Principal Investigator in report or communication. Use of size criteria and size criteria definitions may vary between years and monitoring programs. Parr, smolt, adult, sub-adult, Age 1+, Age 2+, YOY, etc. CDFW Origin Origin of the species described. The Principal Investigator designation is used when available. When not available, a mixed designation is used when a hatchery/broodstock program exists in the watershed or if hatchery strays have been consistently reported. A natural designation is used when there is no hatchery/broodstock program in the watershed and hatchery strays are not reported. CDFW Run Designation Run designation of the population, if any [fall, late-fall, spring, summer, winter]. CDFW Brood Year Only designated for adult salmonids.
