  • 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.

  • Navigable Rivers and Lakes
    Chapter 3 – Navigable Rivers and Lakes Navigable Rivers and Lakes Management Intent of Navigable Waterbodies Background The intent of the plan is to designate and provide management intent for the shorelands under all navigable waterbodies. There are so many navigable rivers and lakes in the planning area that it is not practical to state the management intent for each individual waterbody. Therefore the plan identifies general management intent and designations for most of the waterbodies within the planning area. In some cases, however, specific designations are identified for a particular waterbody because of the size, uniqueness, or particular values and functions of a river or lake. The term "shorelands" is defined as land belonging to the state, which is covered by non-tidal water that is navigable under the laws of the United States up to the ordinary high water mark as modified by accretion, erosion, or reliction (AS 38.05.965). See Figure 1.1 at the beginning of Chapter 1 for a diagram that illustrates the differences between shorelands, submerged lands, and uplands. Shorelands are not identified on the preceding plan designation maps within this Chapter. Identification of all such waterbodies is impractical on maps of the scale used in this plan. The DNR records on navigability and hydrology must be consulted in order to determine whether a specific stream or lake is likely to be navigable. These records are available in the Public Access Assertion & Defense Unit, Division of Mining, Land, and Water in Anchorage. For further information on the state’s navigability policy, go to http://www.dnr.state.ak.us/mlw/nav/nav_policy.htm Public Trust Doctrine The Public Trust Doctrine provides that public trust lands, waters and living natural resources in a state are held by the state in trust for the benefit of all the people, and establishes the right of the public to fully utilize the public trust lands, waters, and resources for a wide variety of public uses.

    DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Geological Literature of the Alaska Peninsula to 1985 by Wilson 1 , S.Z. Gajewski 1 , and L.A. Angeloni 1 Open-File Report 86-176 This report is preliminary and has not been reviewed for conformity with Geological Survey editorial standards and stratigraphic nomenclature. Geological Survey, Anchorage, Alaska 99508 1986 Geological Literature of the Alaska Peninsula to 1985 F.H. Wilson, S.Z. Gajewski, and L.A. Angeloni INTRODUCTION The geology of the Alaska Peninsula has been studied since the middle of the 19th century. Interest in coal, oil, and mineral exploration as well as studies of earthquakes and volcanoes resulted in an extensive geologic literature background for the Alaska Peninsula. This bibliography on the geology and related subjects of the Alaska Peninsula was prepared as background for the U.S. Geological Survey Regional Alaska Mineral Resource Assessment Program II study of the Alaska Peninsula. The project area includes the following 1:250,000 scale quadrangles: Afognak, Bristol Bay, Chignik, Cold Bay, False Pass, Iliamna, Kaguyak, Karluk, Kodiak, Lake Clark, Mt. Katmai, Naknek, Port Holler, Simeonof Island, Stepovak Bay, Sutwik Island, Trinity Islands, Ugashik, and Unimak. This bibliography includes these quadrangles and selected references on the adjacent offshore areas of the Gulf of Alaska and Bristol Bay (Fig. 1). SOURCES Sources used for this bibliography include Geo-Ref computer data files, U.S. Geological Survey and State of Alaska published reports and biblio­ graphies, and personal library files, including those of the late E. H. Cobb (U.S. Geological Survey, Menlo Park, CA.).

Aniakchak TUUGS, Draft Report i Disclaimer The Protected Areas Social Research Unit (PASRU) is associated with the National Park Service Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (NPS PNW CESU) coordinated from the University of Washington (UW) College of Forest Resources. The NPS PNW CESU is part of a larger virtual partnership involving nine federal agencies, 16 universities and the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. The PNW CESU was created in October of 2000 to provide, research, technical assistance, and education to enhance management of natural and cultural resources on public lands in the Pacific Northwest. PASRU, the applied social science program associated with the NPS PNW CESU evolved from the social science program component of the Cooperative Park Studies Unit that operated from the UW College of Forest Resources from 1970 to 2000. The mission of PASRU is to provide social scientific understanding needed to support the sound management and conservation of our national parks and other federally protected areas. PASRU social research projects are intended to provide the appropriate depth and breadth of objective science and scholarly study to meet the information needs of cultural and natural resource managers who encounter complex problems driven by myriad biological, physical, social, cultural and economic forces.
