The objectives of this project are to examine Brook Trout populations in the Driftless Area of northeastern Iowa to 1) evaluate the current spatial distribution of their populations, 2) quantify population characteristics (e.g., abundance, body size, condition), and 3) evaluate effects of biotic and abiotic factors on their distribution and population characteristics.
