This National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska (NPR-A) grant supports a vital program to collect essential streamflow, water chemistry, and climate data from strategic sites across the region. The primary objective is to establish comprehensive baseline data, which will complement existing site-specific monitoring efforts and directly inform crucial management decisions regarding water resource protection within NPR-A. Data collection methods include deploying river gauges and meteorological stations, conducting thorough water quality assessments, and performing snow surveys. Real-time data transmission via telemetry will significantly enhance operational management, particularly for activities such as tundra travel planning and managing water withdrawals. This initiative is critical for sustainable resource management in the Alaskan Arctic.

Description: | This program is to obtain streamflow, water chemistry and climate data from strategically located sites. These sites will provide baseline data which will supplement site-specific monitoring programs and assist with management decisions to protect water resources. River gages, meteorological stations, water quality assessments and snow surveys will be collected and real-time data from remote sites will be made available via telemetry which will enhance management decisions needed for such activities as tundra travel and water withdrawals. |
