Late and early summer surveys are conducted along the 10.7 km of the Elson Lagoon and erosion rates are calculated for the 2-4-m-high coastal bluffs using a differential global...

Monitor changes in vegetation and landforms at 36 study areas in Arctic NWR using historic aerial photographs and current satellite imagery. Historic photographs are from 1947,...

The design of our terrestrial research incorporates a combination of comparisons among sites that differ in their physical setting (e.g., topography and geologic history) and...

These data include quantitative measurements of caribou body size and body condition indicators, listed in Summary below. The caribou in this sample were collected by shooting,...

Using both satellite and in situ data sets, this project will document the seasonal (daily to monthly timescales) of the tundra and marine climate systems at a regional scale...

Students construct a Frost Tube that is inserted into a hole in undisturbed and uncompacted soil. During the cold months, students measure the depth at which water in the Frost...

Methods include: 1) Road surveys to monitor the distribution and abundance of Spectacled Eiders near facilities in the Kuparuk Oilfield during pre-nesting. 2)...

At the start of this project, 10 cow caribou were captured in October and November of 1997. The caribou were "adopted" and given names by school children in northern...

This data set contains air and soil temperatures collected from eight sites in Alaska between 1986 and 2001. The data were obtained by remote, battery-powered,...

The purpose of the study is to obtain population counts for many species of land birds through observation-based surveys conducted biennially. Habitat information is also recorded.

Estimate parturition rate among adult cows, and survival of calves to 1 month.

Two methods have been used to examine caribou distribution and movements in the area of the Alpine pipelines. Aerial transect surveys provide information on the general...

Ravens have been counted at the North Slope Borough landfill site during the Audubon Christmas bird counts since 1987, providing estimates of raven abundance in mid-winter....

Dataset includes: Daily mean water temperatures (1 m depth) for Teshekpuk Lake from September 2007 to July 2011. Variation in summertime lake temperatures reflect...

The project is providing data to researchers studying the effects of ozone depletion on terrestrial and marine biological systems. Data are also used for the validation of...

Two methods have been used to examine caribou distribution and movements in the area of the Alpine pipelines. Aerial transect surveys provide information on the general...

Remote sense imagery has been used to map active layer detachments and retrogressive thaw slumps. The fate of these erosion features will be tracked into the future and has been...

Studies are testing revegetation and bioremediation techniques at sites of small spills of oil and brine. Use of sewage sludge to amend gravel substrates for enhancement of...

We conduct experimental fertilization of the Kuparuk River and Oksrukuyik Creek to determine the effects of added phosphorus and nitrogen on primary productivity, insect...

The program involves developing revegetation performance standards; providing recommendations for enhancing the wildlife characteristics of rehabilitated areas; identifying and...
