Overland Runoff and its Impact on Hydrobiont Mortality in Avachinsky Gulf (Pacific Ocean, Kamchatka)

Abstract
This work discusses the specific features of riverine sediment inflow and its chemical composition to the Avachinsky Gulf of the Pacific Ocean. Based on the GloFAS-ERA5 reanalysis data, we assessed the hydrologic regime of the studied rivers. Further, the fingerprinting method was used to find the sediment transport pathways. In contrast, the sediment delivery to the Pacific Ocean with the Nalycheva River runoff is determined by the interpretation of turbidity plumes on Landsat satellite images. Our findings suggested the leading role of erosion processes on volcanic slopes in forming sediment yield associated with three primary sediment sources: the slopes of Avachinsky, Zhupanovsky and Kupol volcanoes. Our research pays special attention to the lahar consequences on the Zhupanovsky volcano slopes, which occurred in 2015. We supposed that this event had a short-term (within one year) impact on the sediment redistribution of the Nalycheva River estuary.
