* » Abstract

Kachemak Bay, in Cook Inlet Alaska, is a rich, diverse marine ecosystem and contains all of the estuarine and coastal habitat types found in the Gulf of Alaska. However, the bay has experienced significant long-term and recent environmental and ecological changes. Our ecological assessment and related products brings together diverse information to give numerous stakeholder groups the tools needed to inform coastal management for Kachemak Bay, as well as understanding ecosystem changes along Alaska’s coasts.
* Purpose

Kachemak Bay is a subarctic estuary within Cook Inlet in southcentral Alaska that contains all of the estuarine and coastal habitat types found in the Gulf of Alaska, including the rocky intertidal beaches, kelp forests, seagrasses, mudflats, glacial rivers, and salt marshes. It is home to threatened and endangered marine species, and provides refuges and habitat for shellfish, fish, seabirds, and marine mammals. Due to these rich marine resources, Kachemak Bay is a state-designated critical habitat area, a National Estuarine Research Reserve (NERR), a NOAA Habitat Focus Area (HFA), and the site of the NCCOS Kasitsna Bay Laboratory. The bay supports recreational, subsistence, and commercial fishing; marine transportation; and tourism. In recent years, declines in shellfish and fish populations; increased fishery closures; threats from harmful algal blooms, oil and gas development, ocean acidification, invasive species, and pathogens have emerged as issues of concern. Our ecological assessment of Kachemak Bay incorporates various data sets into a consistent, more readily available framework, making it easier for stakeholders to track trends and changes for marine resources and habitats in the bay.

The Kachemak Bay ecological assessment helps inform resource and coastal managers of estuarine and coastal habitat issues affecting not only Kachemak Bay, but also other coastal areas in Cook Inlet and across the Gulf of Alaska. Results and products from the Kachemak Bay ecological assessment will also identify gaps in available information and help NCCOS and partners set priorities for future research efforts.

Process Steps

Process Step Number 1
» Description

The Kachemak Bay Ecological Assessment project was initiated from collaborations between NCCOS and partner organizations as part of the Kachemak Bay Habitat Focus Area (HFA) program and from discussions in regional meetings over multiple years with stakeholders to identify priority issues, data sets, and product development and design. It also was designed to update a 1999 Kachemak Bay Ecological Characterization. We leverage expertise from numerous researchers and long-standing partnerships in the Kachemak Bay area, including the Kachemak Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, Alaska Ocean Observing System, University of Alaska Fairbanks, and multiple NOAA offices.

The team developed products that incorporated various data sets, including geospatial (bathymetry, benthic and shoreline habitat maps, aerial imagery, ocean circulation) and observational (oceanographic, harmful algal blooms, fishery, contaminant, drop-camera imagery, ocean acidification) data for Kachemak Bay. The project leveraged previous NCCOS work, including Kasitsna Bay Laboratory research, ecosystem monitoring under the Gulf Watch Alaska program (funded by the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Trustee Council), the Kachemak Bay BIOMapper tool, contaminant and HAB research and monitoring, and a NMFS-funded clam restoration project for the Kachemak Bay HFA.

Products will include:

• Geodatabase – library of compiled geospatial data layers and observation data to support web mapping services, data viewers and data archival

• Data Archive – select, accessible data, including geospatial layers and observational data.

• Data Viewers (e.g. BioMapper) – online data viewers, interactive maps of various data layers

• Ecological status summary and reports – focus on important management issues.

• State of the Bay report – pilot for annual report on Kachemak Bay ecosystem status.

• Story Maps – interactive online integration of data with narrative to improve science communication on issues of high regional interest.

• Peer-reviewed science manuscripts.
