Data stations are identified in this volume by a unique four digit index number which identifies type of data and station location.The first two dislits of the index number -correspond to the type of data collected. There are seventeen different types of water resou rce data indexed,so data stations series are numbered accordingly 0100 through 1700.The last two digits of the index number correspond to a unique location number. FOl'data taken from river sampling,station numbers increase from up- stream to down stream locations.River miles are listed where applicable to help identify station locations.For data stations away from the river channel,the location number is unique for that location among each data ser'iesnumber. Thlus for the index number 0540,for example,the first two digits (05) identify the data as sediment discharge),while the latter two digits (40) identify the station as Susitna River at Gold Creek.Most of the data coillection stations included in this index are shown on the Data Collection Stations map accompanying this volume.Most station index numbers are shown next to thei r associated station symbol on the map,In the cases whl~re many index numbers are assignable to one location,index numbers are listed and cross referenced in the table of multiple record stations inset at the upper left portion of the map. All new data collected by R&M Consultants or other organizations will be added to the index system.An update will be prepared and distributed to per'sonnel listed in Appendix G each year.Anyone knowing of additional data that has been collected within or adjacent to the Susitna River Basin is i:lsked to notify R&M Consultants,P.O.Box 6087,Anchorage,Alaska - 99503,(907)561-1733. Hard copy of the data will be stored in the R&M Consultants offices.The data will be made available to project team members and other concerned parties upon request. r susi7/b - 1 - (Revised 7/85) WATER RESOURCES DATA COLLECTED IN THE SUSITNA RIVER BASIN 0100 STREAMFLOW CONTINUOUS GAGING Mean daily discharge and/or annual maximum flood peak discharge data have been collected by the U.S.Geological Survey (USGS)&R&M Consultants (R&M)at several locations within the Susitna River Basin.

Climatic Data collected by NOAA appear for individual stations in one of two types of reports.The first,entitled "Local Climatological Data, Annual Summary with Comparative Data"is generally the most comprehensive and is published only for stations with over 30 years data. A list of the parameters included in this report is presented in Appendix D.The second,entitled "Annual Climatologic Summary"contains fewer parameters than the first,and a list of the parameters included in this report'is presented in Appendix E.It should be noted that all of the parameters listed in the appendices for a particular report may not have actually been measu red at any given station. NOAA also publishes reports entitled "Local Climatological Data,Monthly Summaries".These reports are available for any station publishing an "Annual Summary with Comparative Data",and present most of the parameters contained in the annual su-mmary on a daily basis,with selected parameters also presented on a 3-hour or hourly basis. Data for stations not covered by the above reports can be obtained from NOAA reports entitled "Climatological Data"(CD's)which are published monthly and contain summary information on all climate stations in the State. The miscellaneous wind data have been supplied by Mr.Jim Wise of the Arctic Environmental I nformation and Data Center,and are taken from the manuscript entitled "Wind Power Atlas".The data are listed by parameter collected.This information is footnoted in the table and listed at the end of the table. Climate data measu red at each R&M station include:ai r temperatu re, average wind speed,wind direction,peak wind gust,relative humidity, precipitation,and sola r radiation.Longwave radiation is measu red at Watana and Eklutna Lake.Snowfall amounts have been measu red in a heated precipitation bucket,which was operated only at Watana through the spring of 1983.An accumulating precipitation gage was used during subsequent winters.A Wyoming wind shield was installed at Watana in hte fall of 1981 to reduce wind effect.Data are recorded at fifteen or thi rty-min ute intervals at all the stations.An evaporation pan was installed in spring of 1981 at Watana Camp and measurements are taken dai Iy du ring May -September. An attempt has been made at ordering climate stations from the upper to the lower Susitna River Basin,with R&M Stations in the upper Susitna River Basin listed first.

(Revised 7/85) 1500 GLACIAL OBSERVATIONS ,~ - - Glacial studies were begun by R&M Consultants and the University of Alaska during 1981.The objective of this program is to identify any problems peculiar to the existence of glaciers in the Susitna Basin.This study assessed whether significant changes in water or sediment yield could occur or if potential lake dumps exist and is oriented toward a long-term glacial observation and study program. Data were gathered on all major glaciers of the Upper Susitna Basin with the exception of the Eu reka and Oshetna Glaciers.Study of the Eu reka Glacier was limited to visual observations and aerial photography.The Oshetna Glacier was not considered a major contributor to the flow or sediment regime of the Susitna River and therefore was omitted from this study. R&M conducted the control and velocity surveys on the West Fork Glacier, West Tributary of Susitna G lacier,Tu rkey Glacier and East Tributa ry of Susitna Glacier.The velocity su rveys have been repeated month Iy,May through September,during 1981 and 1982,to determine ice movement as an aid in mass balance and glacier dynamics analyses. A thermocouple string was installed to a depth of 66 feet at an elevation of 7700 feet on the West Tributary of Susitna Glacier to determine the -thermal regime of the ice. Glacial studies were supported by historical data from climate stations and snow surveys in the Susitna Basin,as well as sediment discharge records for the Susitna and Maclaren Rivers. The results of this data acquisition effort,as well as a thorough description of field procedu res and analytical methods,are presented in reports by Dr.Wi Iliam Harrison of the Geophysical Institute (R &M and Harrison 1981,and 1982), A mass balance survey was conducted by R&M and UAF in May 1983 on the following glaciers:West Fork,Susitna,Tu rkey,East Fork S usitna,East Fork and Maclaren.Velocity su rveys were discontinued in 1983.UAF measured the snow stakes in September 1983 and obtained snow stratig raphy data. R&M Consultants measured the remaInIng snow stakes in September 1984 and reset all the markers at the original locations.These markers consist of accumulation stakes at high elevations,ablation stakes at low elevations and velocity stakes near the equilibrium zone on all the previously named glaciers. susi7/r 1500 - 1 (Revised 4/85) 1600 GLACIAL LAKE OBSERVATIONS To determine the effects of a la rge impoundment of glacial water,such as the Watana or Devil Canyon reservoi r,upon a stream system,a glacial la ke study was begun in the spring of 1982.On April 16 R&M Consultants,in conjunction with ADF&G,visited four glacial lakes in south-central Alaska; Kenai,Skilak,Tustumena and Eklutna.They measu red temperatu re profiles and turbidity at each fa ke.It was then decided that a more intense study of one glacial lake would be a preferred approach.Eklutna Lake was chosen as an easily accessible glacial reservoir,and it is also comparable to the proposed Watana reservoir considering the following criteria:-1. 2. 3. Residence time of water in lake Percent of drainage area covered by glaciers Ratio of live storage to total storage - - -. Continuous discharge and temperature data are being measured at the main inflow glacial streams by R&M Consultants du ring the open water season. Daily outflow temperatu res and flow releases from the tail race of the power plant are monitored by Alaska Power,Administration personnel.Lake water quality profiles are being developed from sampling at fixed locations on a biweekly schedule during the summer,and at longer intervals during the winter.Profile data may include temperature,conductivity,turbidity and/or transmissivity.Water temperatu re was measu red contin uously at selected la ke depths at one station from July,1982 to November,1984. Measurement of light penetration in the lake was also undertaken.Dates of the lake sampling trips are listed below. A climate station was installed on the southern end of the reservoir in June 1982.Parameters recorded every 15 minutes include air temperature, wind speed and direction,peak wind gust,relative humidity,shortwave radiation and precipitation.Longwave radiation nieasu rement was added in July 1982.In November 1983,recording interval was changed to 30 minutes and the station was removed in December 1984. Data were collected concerning the sediment regime of the lake and the inflow streams,including sediment concentration and particle size distribution,sediment particle density distribution and mineralogy. All the above-mentioned data can be found on file at R&M Consultants. Data collected after November 1982 were reported in "Glacial Lakes Physical Limnology Studies Eklutna Lake,Alaska"(R&M Consultants,1985). Lake sampling trips have been conducted on the following dates: May 25,1982 June 8,1982 June 17 and 18,1982 July 1 and 2,1982 July 14 and 15,1982 July 27-29,1982 s15/s 1600 - 1 (Revised 7/85) - ,.,.. s15/s August 10-12,1982 September 8-10,1982 October 14-15,1982 November 4,1982 January 11 and 13,1983 February 18,1983 May 14,1983 June 2,1983 July 6,1983 August 3,1983 September 7,1983 October 5,1983 November 1,1983 December 6,1983 January 16,1984 Feburary 16,1984 March 23,1984 April 20,1984 May 17,1984 June 6,1984 June 21,1984 July 5,1984 July 19,1984 August 3,1984 August 16-20,1984 September 3,1984 September 17,1984 October 1,1984 October 15,1984 October 29,1984 November 12,1984 Novembeer 26,1984 1600 - 2 (Revised 7/85) - 1700 AQUATIC HABITAT OBSERVATIONS The Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF&G)has studied the aquatic habitat of the Susitna River since 1974.Data collection during the period 1974-1981 is detailed in Appendix C of this report.In the spring of 1982, continuing into 1985,ADF&G intensified its study of selected areas. Data collection sites are listed below according to type of site.The years of data col.lection at this site are noted in brackets [ ]following the site name.The agency responsible for each site is also noted,where this has been identified.It should be noted that this is not an exhaustive list of ADF&G study sites. The results of the 1984 joint data collection effort by E.Woody Trihey (ETW&A)and ADF&G are presented in the 1985 draft report by EWT&A: Summa ry of Hyd rau lie Conditions and Habitat Forecasts at 1984 Middle River Study Sites.
