Conclusion: Agriculture lowers QHEI scores because:Riparian zone reducedSiltation
Hypothesis 2:Increasing the quality of the substrate will increase IBI and ICI.

Figures given are averages, maxima, and minima for the subwatershed and year given
HUC 14 stands for the hydrologic unit code of the US Geological Survey. The 14 digit code is for the smaller subwatersheds
Riparian land use is the land use within 90 meters of the stream as measured in the 1994 USGS land cover interpretation for the US
The percentages reported are for agriculture (both cropland and pasture), urban land uses (residential, commercial, and industrial), and deciduous forest
The remaining percentages are divided among several other categories

Substrate Affects on IBI and ICI
Conclusion:ICI depends on the substrateIBI depends on ICIIf substrate is unhealthy, the ICI and IBI are affected
Hypothesis 3: As dissolved oxygenincreases in the Scioto Bokes, the IBI and ICI increase.

HUC 14 stands for the hydrologic unit code of the US Geological Survey. The 14 digit code is for the smaller subwatersheds
Riparian land use is the land use within 90 meters of the stream as measured in the 1994 USGS land cover interpretation for the US
The percentages reported are for agriculture (both cropland and pasture), urban land uses (residential, commercial, and industrial), and deciduous forest
The remaining percentages are divided among several other categories

Conclusion:As the dissolved oxygen increases, the IBI and ICI also increase. There is an exception, where IBI and ICI appear to be affected by modification of the habitat (dams).
Recommendations:Restart the cleanup process of Baker WoodControl urbanization along streamsDevelop cost share program
