Kenai River Salmon ... a Unique Resource in South-Central Alaska.
Abstract
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), and active member of the Advisory Board for thee Kenai River Special Management Area, has been studying Kenai River resources for several years in cooperation with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game and other resource agencies. Research on salmon spawning and rearing areas in the Kenai River was conducted by the Seattle National Fishery Research Center, USFWS, from 1979 to 1982. This summary of research findings is intended to provide an understanding of how the Kenai River and its tributary systems and associated wetlands satisfy the important life history requirements of the salmon they support.
