Resource Abstract:
- description: Bathymetric maps and their data are presented for 82 lakes in southcentral Alaska, including Cook Inlet, (e.g.,
Kenai Peninsula and Matanuska-Susitna Boroughs), Prince William Sound (e.g. Copper River valley), and Bristol Bay (e.g., Kvicahk
River and Alaska Peninsula) areas. The maps originated from a variety of published and unpublished sources and have been edited
and formatted to a consistent style. The principal source of the bathymetric map and its morphometric data used in this report
are cited when known, while others are of an anonymous origin. Lakes included in this atlas range in size from less than 100,000
m^2 such as Arc Lake to 2,622 km^2 for Lake Iliamna, the largest lake in Alaska. All of the lakes selected have either a historical
or current limnogical database (physical profiles, water chemistry and nutrient data, and biological information) from various
limnological and fisheries investigations carried out by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADF&G) or ADF&G cooperative
research endeavors.; abstract: Bathymetric maps and their data are presented for 82 lakes in southcentral Alaska, including
