This project was initiated as part of the National Park Service Vital Signs Inventory and Monitoring Program in an effort to collect water quality data in an area where little work had previously been done. The objectives were to collect baseline information on the physical and chemical characteristics of the water resources, and, where possible, relate basic water quality parameters to fish occurrence. Water temperatures in Kenai Fjords waters generally met the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) regulatory standards for both drinking water and growth and propagation of fish, shellfish, other aquatic life and wildlife. Water temperature standard are less than or equal to 13° C for spawning and egg and fry incubation, or less than or equal to 15° C for rearing and migration (DEC 2003). -
