WR1 - Wallowa River at river km 14

Status: Active - Operational

Site Type: Instream Remote Detection System | Organization: Nez Perce Tribe

General Operational Period: Year Round
Start Date: 1/1/2014 12:00 AM

WR1 is an in-stream detection system consisting of a single array located in the Wallowa River, Oregon. The array is located at river km 522.271.131.014 (N 45.633769 ° W -117.73369°) and consists of six 20 foot Biomark flat panel antennas. The array spans all but 20 feet of the river at base flow. WR1 is operated by the Integrated Status and Effectiveness Project (ISEMP) cooperators Nez Perce Tribe Fisheries and Quantitative Consultants, Inc. and was installed for continuous monitoring on August 16, 2013. The array includes ISEMP standard site monitoring equipment including: air and water temperature probes, and a water pressure transducer to monitor stream level. Electrical power is provided by a thermal electric generator. Remote communication is provided by a satellite phone modem. Data collection started on August 16, 2013.
