  • A Watershed Database for National Parks in Southwestern Alaska and a System for Further Watershed-Based Analysis
    A Watershed Database for National Parks in Southwestern Alaska and a System for Further Watershed-based Analysis David M. Mixon 2005 Introduction This document describes a project designed to delineate and quantitatively describe watersheds located within or flowing into or out of national park lands in the National Inventory and Monitoring program’s Southwest Alaskan Network (SWAN) of parks. The parks included in this study are Aniakchak National Monument & Preserve, Katmai National Park & Preserve, Lake Clark National Park & Preserve, and Kenai Fjords National Park. This effort was undertaken to support decision-making processes related to the Inventory and Monitoring program’s goals. A variety of environmental and physical attributes were collected for each watershed using remotely sensed data in the form of a geographic information system (GIS). The GIS data used is from a variety of sources with variable quality. The nature of GIS analysis is such that many times a newer, higher-resolution dataset may become available during the course of any given study. For this reason, a set of scripts and methods are provided, making the incorporation of newer datasets as easy as possible. The goal is to provide an initial analysis of park hydrology as well as a means for updating the database with a minimal amount of effort. It was necessary to choose a watershed size (stream order) that would provide sufficient detail for each park and allow useful comparison of basins within the parks while minimizing the complexity of the study. Review of standards for hydrologic unit delineation being used for the National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) (FGDC, 2002), suggested that the officially designated level 5 watersheds would provide the level of detail desired while minimizing redundancy.

Gerken, B.S. Fairbanks, Alaska December 2009 Ill Abstract InconnuStenodus leucichthys are present throughout much of the Yukon Rlver drainage in Alaska, but only five spawning areas have been identified. Spawning habitat requlrements are therefore thought to be very speclflc; however, the physlcal qualltles of these habitats have only been characterized in general terms. The Sulukna River is one of five identified inconnu spawning areas within the Yukon River drainage. A systematic sampling design was used in September and October of 2007-2008 to define Sulukna River spawning locations. Presence of inconnu was identified using hook and line sampling methods and spawning was verified by catching broadcast eggs in plankton nets. Small-scale, large-scale, and chemical habitat variables were sampled at transects located every 1.8 river kilometer (rkm).
