Benthic diatom assemblages in streams may respond simultaneously to both natural variation in stream habitat and to anthropogenic habitat degradation and are ideal organisms for biological monitoring. The overarching goal of this study was to examine the utility of diatoms for monitoring Cook Inlet region aquatic systems and to develop the criteria for its interpretation. Within that framework, the main objectives of this project were to (1) ascertain the variability of diatom assemblages caused by natural factors, (2) separate natural variation from that attributed to urban development, and (3) assess the seasonal variability of diatom assemblages. There are several natural patterns that occur spatially within...

ScienceBase brings together the best information it can find about USGS researchers and offices to show connections to publications, projects, and data. We are still working to improve this process and information is by no means complete. If you don't see everything you know is associated with you, a colleague, or your office, please be patient while we work to connect the dots. Feel free to contact sciencebase@usgs.gov.
