Headwater Stream Rearing Habitat - Phase 1

Synopsis:Headwater streams provide important habitat for juvenile salmon on the lower Kenai Peninsula though their importance is often overlooked. Using improved remote imaging technology, this project will develop tools to better identify important headwater streams and the landscape features that contribute to differences in headwater stream habitat. The project will also measure the ability of alder patches in the watershed to contribute nitrogen-rich nutrients that support aquatic life.
