Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Waterflow Through a Salmon Spawning Riffle in Southeastern Alaska
Because of low ground-water dissolved oxy gen, Indian Creek (and probably many other streams in Southeastern Alaska and else where) apparently differs from spawning areas in which the presence of ground water has been reported to affect beneficially spawning of adult salmonids and survival of their eggs and larvae. White Greeley Hazzard and Benson (1953) all stated that the presence of springs and of ground water seepage determined the location of spawning areas of brook and other species of trout. Benson also said that ground-water seepage affected both sizes and numbers of all age groups of brook and brown trout in the Pigeon River, Mich.
