Abstract

The article presents a study on the effect of climate change on southern Appalachian stream populations such as book and rainbow trout which are tracked for 30 years using a geographic information system database. The abundances of trout are found to increase due to the increased in temperature while the complexity of the changes in the abundances of trout in zones are associated with temperature and stream flow.
