Water temperature, water level, and adult sockeye salmon migration observations in Auke Creek, Alaska / by H.W. Stiff, K.D. Hyatt, S.C. Vulstek, J.R. Russell, and J.E. Joyce.: Fs97-4/3178E-PDF

"Daily mean water temperature and adult migration data (1980-2016) were assembled for Auke Creek Sockeye in southeast Alaska. Regional air temperature collected at Juneau-area meteorological stations were linearly correlated to generate a continuous mean daily air temperature index, which was used as a predictor for Auke Creek water temperatures to model daily mean water temperatures from 1900-2016. A similar process was used with regional precipitation data in relation to creek water level data (2006-2016) to hind-cast Auke Creek daily water levels back to 1900. Trend and exceedance analyses were applied to reconstructed time-series to review long-term trends in Auke Creek water temperature and level, recent trends in inter-annual migration timing, and within-year daily migration patterns"--Abstract, page v.
