Project Description: Water temperature regulates key physical and biological processes in freshwater systems. In turn, water temperature is regulated by air temperature at broad scales. Given that air temperature has risen in Alaska and is projected to continue rising throughout this century, monitoring water temperature is a crucial step toward managing freshwater resources in Alaska. It is also a crucial step toward retaining thriving populations of sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka), a temperature-sensitive keystone species in southwest Alaska.
