Kernel Average Smoother(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_smoothing) • A kernel smoother is a non-parametric statistical technique for estimating a real valued function by using its noisy observations. • For each data point X0, choose a constant distance size λ (kernel radius for p=1 dimension), and • Compute a weighted average for all data points that are closer than λ to X0 (the closer to X0 points get higher weights).
Licensee-Proposed Large Rainbow Juvenile Velocity HSC UNFF data restricted to large channel
Other Yuba-Bear/Drum-Spaulding HSC • Licensees agree with agency-proposed curves for: • Rainbow trout spawning • Hardhead juvenile & adult rearing • Sucker juvenile & adult rearing (binary)
