Description

In 2008, Cook Inletkeeper organized a regional salmon stream monitoring network to assess the range and extent of changes in water temperature throughout the Cook Inlet watershed. This project was initiated after researchers realized that the watershed may be exhibiting greater maximums in temperature relative to historical norms. Through this observation system, Cook Inletkeeper hopes to identify watershed characteristics that make a stream more vulnerable to temperature extremes and use this information to help promote strategic policies in the future
