- Description
- Temperature is an important factor controlling numerous processes in fish and their habitats including metabolic rate, susceptibility to disease, migration timing, primary production, respiration, growth, decomposition, and water chemistry. Development adjacent to stream habitats (Le. land clearing) as well as changes in climate can potentially cause fluctuations in water temperature beyond the behavioral and physiological tolerance of aquatic organisms including fish that could have a serious deleterious affect on their productivity and availability to subsistence users. Currently, the availability of reliable water temperature data records for stream habitats is very limited in Alaska. Daily water temperature data is routinely collected at fish monitoring sites (weirs, counting towers and tagging sites) operated by Federal, State and Tribal organizations in Alaska; however, methods for data collection, standardization and reporting are not uniformly applied and often are inadequate for analyses required to monitor climate change, and support conservation actions.
