Chemistry of Orange and Reference Streams in Northwestern Alaska Chemistry of Orange and Reference Streams in Northwestern Alaska

These data include water chemistry from headwater streams to large rivers that have recently turned orange and reference rivers that have not. These samples were collected in two national parks in Arctic Alaska: Kobuk Valley National Park, and Noatak National Preserve.

Selected Peak-Flow Special Conditions for USGS Streamgages in Alaska Selected Peak-Flow Special Conditions for USGS Streamgages in Alaska

This data package documents selected special conditions affecting the magnitude of peak flows at streamgages in Alaska. The data consist of a table of special conditions for selected peak flows and a table of data sources. This dataset verifies the basis for assignment of peak-flow qualification codes in the USGS National Water Information System (NWIS; https://doi.org/10.5066/F7P55KJN)...

Tracking Data for Bar-tailed Godwits (Limosa lapponica) Tracking Data for Bar-tailed Godwits (Limosa lapponica)

This data release includes 2 child items with tracking data for Bar-tailed Godwits. One of the subspecies, Limosa lapponica baueri, nests in Alaska and spends the nonbreeding season in New Zealand and eastern Australia whereas L.l.menzbieri nests in Siberia and spends the nonbreeding season in western Australia. Child Item 1: "Argos Satellite Tracking Data for Bar-tailed Godwits (Limosa...

Radiocarbon Data for Tree Ring Samples from Girdwood, Alaska Radiocarbon Data for Tree Ring Samples from Girdwood, Alaska

This dataset consists of sample details and radiocarbon age data of tree-ring samples collected near Girdwood, Alaska, and analyzed at the National Ocean Sciences Accelerator Mass Spectrometry Facility.

Geochemical Data from Selected Triassic Rock Samples in Northeastern Alaska Geochemical Data from Selected Triassic Rock Samples in Northeastern Alaska

This set of data files contains analyses of samples representing Triassic units (Shublik and Ivishak Formations and Karen Creek Sandstone) in Alaska. The samples were collected from 20 outcrop localities in northeastern Alaska. The data set includes total organic carbon (TOC) and geochemical data from inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy-mass spectroscopy (ICP-OES-MS)...

Harlequin Duck Genetic Data, North America, Greenland, and Iceland, 1952-2001 Harlequin Duck Genetic Data, North America, Greenland, and Iceland, 1952-2001

This data package is comprised of three tables with data from wintering Harlequin Ducks (Histrionicus histrionicus) from Alaska, British Columbia, Washington, Maine, Greenland, and Iceland. The first table contains available allele sizes for 7 microsatellite loci (Sfiµ1, Sfiµ4, Sfiµ9, Sfiµ10, Bcaµ10, Hhiµ2, Hhiµ5) and mtDNA control region haplotypes. The second table contains the mtDNA...

algaeClassify algaeClassify

The goal of algaeClassify is to facilitate the analysis of taxonomic and functional trait data for phytoplankton.

Tracking Data for Buff-breasted Sandpipers (Calidris subruficollis) Tracking Data for Buff-breasted Sandpipers (Calidris subruficollis)

This data package includes 2 child items with tracking data for Buff-breasted Sandpipers, a shorebird species that breeds only in Arctic Alaska and Canada, spending the winter in the grasslands of Brazil, Uruguay, and Argentina after a lengthy migration. Child Item 1: "Argos and GPS Satellite Tracking Data for Buff-breasted Sandpipers (Calidris subruficollis) - Processed Data" - Quality

Gene Transcription and Heat Shock Protein 70 Abundance in Juvenile Hatchery Reared Coho Salmon and Chinook Salmon during a Manipulative Thermal Experiment, Anchorage, Alaska 2020-2021 Gene Transcription and Heat Shock Protein 70 Abundance in Juvenile Hatchery Reared Coho Salmon and Chinook Salmon during a Manipulative Thermal Experiment, Anchorage, Alaska 2020-2021

This dataset consists of two tables with the results from two manipulative thermal experiments with juvenile coho salmon (May 2021) and juvenile Chinook salmon (May 2020) and include 1) gene transcription results and heat shock protein 70 abundance in coho salmon and Chinook salmon and 2) water temperatures to which fish were exposed during the experiment.

Length, Weight, Energy Density, and Isotopic Values of Fish from Rivers in Northwest Alaska, 2015-2019 Length, Weight, Energy Density, and Isotopic Values of Fish from Rivers in Northwest Alaska, 2015-2019

This dataset contains length, weight, energy density, and isotope values of fish collected in northwest Alaskan rivers during summer and fall 2015-2019.

Bayesian Hierarchical Model of Whimbrel Survival Bayesian Hierarchical Model of Whimbrel Survival

This model combines resighting data from Whimbrels breeding at Kanuti National Wildlife Refuge with known-fate data and pseudo-resighting history from Whimbrels breeding at the Colville River Delta ('colv'). All Whimbrels in the study (n = 76) were marked with a USGS metal band and a uniquely coded engraved leg flag. In addition, 15 Whimbrels at Kanuti were equipped with surgically...
