Summary of Activity and Data Gathered: Topographic data were collected in the Carmel River channel successfully at the locations specified above. Topographic surveys were used to delineate channel-perpendicular transects and bathymetry within pools in river bends. Data were analyzed and quality verified by Josh Logan, and further work has been completed to merge these data with additional data collected by NOAA personnel at adjacent field sites.
