51 <br />Bonytail chub. • <br />o No data are available regarding habitat availability-discharge relationships for <br />this species. It should be noted however, that observations suggest bonytail <br />chub utilize eddy and pool habitat, thus flows providing for eddy and pool <br />habitat may benefit this species. <br />Holden (1980) reported that bonytail chub apparently utilize eddy and <br />pool habitats regularly. <br />Razorback sucker. <br />o No data are available regarding habitat availability-discharge relationships for <br />this species. <br /> <br />Flow-Temperature Relationships <br />o most aspects of this topic are covered in the temperature section of the <br />physical overview chapter. Several items dealing specifically with flow induced <br />temperature changes and their effect on the rare fishes are covered however. <br />o Channel morphology changes due to flow regulation by water development <br />projects often lead to warming of summer water temperatures. <br />-Miller et al. (1982c) summarized various channel changes brought about <br />by flow modification as creating a wider, shallower, and warmer river. <br />Extreme flow augmentation during summer may cause water <br />temperature to decline however, if temperature declines associated with <br />0
