  • Glacial Change on Baranof Island: Quantifying Local-Level Impact of Climate Change
    Glacial Change on Baranof Island: Quantifying Local-level Impact of Climate Change Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins, Chandler Kemp, Eli Bildner Overview The glaciers of Baranof Island – the only glaciated island in Southeast Alaska – are small, disparate, and sensitive to climatic change due to the temperate climate in which they are situated. We propose to quantify the change in area of a selection of Baranof Island glaciers over recent history by gathering geospatial data, calculating the perimeter and surface area of the glaciers, using a model to estimate glacial volume, and then comparing our findings against the historical record – historical USGS field measurements, historical aerial photographs, tree core data, and geomorphological indicators such as terminal moraines and trim lines. We will then quantify historical change of surface area and perimeter, and if sufficient historical data points are available, we will also calculate a rate of change (both for surface area and extent of the terminus) and predict future glacial advance or retreat. Methodology Targeted Glaciers We will gather data for two subsets of glaciers, one subset from mid-Baranof Island, one subset from the South Baranof Wilderness Area. The first subset of glaciers will consist of two glaciers from mid-Baranof Island, both on or near the Cross-Baranof Island Trail and well known by users of the Sitka Community Use Area. These glaciers are indicated in map attachment 1 – a small valley glacier north of Glacier Lake and a modest icefield north of the Baranof River valley. The second subset of glaciers will consist of three smaller hanging and cirque glaciers from the South Baranof Wilderness Area (see map attachment 2).

  • East Baranof Island
    East Baranof Province as the highest peaks on Admiralty Island, but they intercept more moisture and are more heavily glaciated. They also appear more jagged, because regional ice levels were somewhat lower during the Great Ice Age, and therefore a greater proportion of their summits stood free of the rounding effects of ice. The unnamed 5,328-ft (1,625 m) mountain at the head of Baranof River is the tallest peak on any Southeast island, and overlooks an icefield of about 5 mi2 (12 km2), the largest such expanse on the archipelago. Catherine Island is a giant “tombolo;” only during extreme high tides is it actually separated from Baranof Island by salt water. The largest streams and rivers draining the interior glaciated highlands are braided and aggrading where they reach the lowlands. Most deliver their silt burden into lakes before reaching the ocean. Only Glacial River, terminating in the south arm of Kelp Bay, carries glacial silt all the way into estuarine salt marshes, and is unique among all archipelago streams in this regard. The Clear River also enters these marshes, forming an instructive contrast. East Baranof Province is one of the wettest regions of Southeast. Little Port Walter on southeastern Baranof receives FIG 1. East Baranof Province. 221 in (561 cm) of precipitation annually.

It is intended to give new university personnel a brief history of the University's evolution of higher education in Sitka. It will also be valuable for the Sitka campus advisory committee members and interesting for general community readers. As the campus' second full-time director in 1972, Mr. Knapp is particularly qualified to author the document. He has researched a variety of historical communications and has interviewed all past directors, as well as other university and community individuals who have had an historical roll.
