  1. Results show a positive significant relationship between higher Kn and magnitude of sunfish biomass, and fish size, and a negative relationship with water level and the number of days the freshwater marsh has dropped below 30 cm when prey become concentrated in the river channels. Variance Inflation Factor (VIF) along with 95% confidence interval used to inspect for multicollinearity is included.
