Excerpt from Preliminary Classification of Forest Vegetation of the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska
The Kenai Lowlands range from 15 to 60 meters in elevation and are composed of two discernible subregions. Immediately west of the mountain region, present lowland topography is the result of the formation of glacial moraines. Further west toward the coast, parent materials consist of silt-rich deposits laid down after the formation of glacially dammed lakes.

The work is grounded in previously established vegetation systems for southeast coastal and interior Alaska, while recognizing the peninsula's distinct plant assemblage. The author discusses each community's physiographic, edaphic, stand structure, and species composition, as well as the potential for each community to represent a stable and mature ecosystem.
