Strawberry Creek's hydrology has been greatly altered by watershed urbanization resulting in an increase in impervious surfaces on the UC Berkeley campus and City of Berkeley's Northside community. The consequences of urbanization include increased water pollution, decreased groundwater recharge, and flash flows, characterized by higher, faster peak flows than occurred prior to urbanization.

This page contains reports and monitoring data of Strawberry Creek water flow.
