UCSB SONGS Mitigation Monitoring: Wetland Performance Standard - Fish Abundance and Species Richness

These data describe the annual estimates of density of wetland fish (all species combined) and the species richness (as the number of unique species) in six main channel and six tidal creek locations at four coastal wetlands as part of the SONGS San Dieguito Wetland Restoration monitoring program to track long-term patterns in species abundance and diversity. This study began in 2012 in the San Dieguito Wetland in San Diego County, CA, Carpinteria Salt Marsh in Santa Barbara County, CA, and Mugu Lagoon in Ventura County, CA. Tijuana Estuary in San Diego County was added in 2013.
