SEASON DEFINITIONS FOR WATER QUALITY SUMMARY
Breakup -from the time ice begins to break up until recession of
spring runoff.
Summer -from the end of breakup until the water temperature drops t o

NUrRIENTS WILL REMAIN ABUNDANT
PRIMARY PRODUCTION IS PRESENTLY LIMITED BY LIGHT AND VELOCITY
PRIMARY PRODUCTION MAY INCREASE UNDER POST-PROJECT CONDITIONS BECAUSE
OF LOWER, MORE STABLE FL~S AND DECREASED TURBIDITIES

Selected Thoughts about Possible Limited Potential
for Susitna Induced Mercury Bioccumulation
1. Limited Fishery in Reservoirs
2. Limited primarily to resident fish -Downstream
3. Other "problem" reservoirs are:
Shallower
Warmer
Richer Trophic Status
-Inund.3ting much organic debris
-Accelerates microbial metabolism
More light and labile organic material for
microbial metabolism to cycle and possibly
for CH 3 llg
