Katmai National Park and Preserve and Alagnak Wild River : natural resource condition assessment / Zanon, Jacob [and eight others] ; GeoSpatial Services, Saint Mary's University of Minnesota.

Summary:

The objectives of this assessment are to evaluate and report on current conditions of key park resources, to evaluate critical data and knowledge gaps, and to highlight selected existing stressors and emerging threats to resources or processes. Overall, the condition of the resources in this book is good. However, threats and stressors of high concern may cause resource impact in the near future. Several park-wide threats and stressors influence the condition of priority resources in Katmai National Park and Preserve and Alagnak Wild River. Those of primary concern include climate change and oil spills.
