Raikow DF, Farahi A, McCutcheon AL, Kichman S. 2017. Marine water quality in in War in the Pacific National Historical Park Summary Report 2009-2014. Natural Resource Data Series. NPS/PACN/NRDS—2017/1122. National Park Service. Fort Collins, Colorado
This Natural Resource Data Series Report presents data collected from the marine portion of War in the Pacific National Historical Park in Asan and Agat, Guam, USA. This is a summary or “data report” as described in the Water Quality Vital Signs Monitoring Protocol for the Pacific Island Network Version 1.0, Natural Resource Report NPS/PACN/NRR-2011/418. This report is restricted to data presentation and a limited description. The data presented in this report will be analyzed and interpreted for the establishment of expected parameter value ranges and long-term trends in future reports published in the National Park Service Natural Resource Report series. The purpose of collecting data on Vital Signs is to provide park managers information on current conditions and temporal trends in ecosystem health. Sampling methods employed here were not designed to match methods used to evaluate territory water quality criteria, and were therefore not directly comparable.
