Alaska Park Science is an award-winning journal published by the National Park Service, Alaska Regional Office. The journal reports information from on-going and recently completed research in and around Alaska’s national parklands. Alaska Park Science covers all relevant scientific disciplines in the biological, physical, cultural, and social sciences. This issue highlights research conducted in partnership with the U.S. Geological Survey. The articles largely focus on water: frozen water (glaciers), moving water (streams and rivers), still water (lakes), and salt water (intertidal). We explore water as a source of transportation (rivers, lakes, and gulfs), concern (oil spills, permafrost thaw, and erosion), and livelihoods (fish, wildlife, and recreation)—even as a means for conducting science, such as how a river corridor serves as a bear survey transect.
