Zircon U-Pb, Organic Carbon Isotope, and Geochemistry Data from the Hue Shale and Canning Formation, Arctic Alaska, 2025 Zircon U-Pb, Organic Carbon Isotope, and Geochemistry Data from the Hue Shale and Canning Formation, Arctic Alaska, 2025

This dataset contains results from three stratigraphic sections of the Hue Shale located in and adjacent to the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in northeastern Alaska. Sample heights were measured with a tape measure in continuous successions. Zircon grains from volcanic ashes were analyzed via laser ablation at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) using a Photon Machines...

Whole Rock Major and Trace Element Chemistry for Igneous, Metamorphic, and Mineralized Rocks Collected for Select Projects in Alaska Whole Rock Major and Trace Element Chemistry for Igneous, Metamorphic, and Mineralized Rocks Collected for Select Projects in Alaska

This dataset consists of one table containing whole-rock geochemistry data for 251 igneous, metamorphic, and mineralized (metasomatic) rocks from various locations across Alaska in support of mineral assessments of critical minerals and transboundary watersheds. The samples were collected mainly between 2019 and 2023, and all materials were analyzed by ALS Global, between 2019 and 2023...

Extreme Flood, Atmospheric River Presence, and Basin Characteristic Data for a Study of Peak Streamflow Special Conditions in Alaska Extreme Flood, Atmospheric River Presence, and Basin Characteristic Data for a Study of Peak Streamflow Special Conditions in Alaska

This data release contains input data and results for an investigation of special conditions for peak streamflow and extreme floods for USGS streamgages in Alaska. Special conditions can include data-collection conditions, basin conditions, flood-generating mechanisms, or other information and can be critical for informing hydrologic analyses such as flood frequency analysis. The dataset...

Avian Point-Count Data from Boreal Alaska and Maps of Predicted Population Density for Lesser Yellowlegs, Olive-sided Flycatcher, and Rusty Blackbird, 2001-2020 Avian Point-Count Data from Boreal Alaska and Maps of Predicted Population Density for Lesser Yellowlegs, Olive-sided Flycatcher, and Rusty Blackbird, 2001-2020

This data package contains 1) field data and 2) predicted distributions of three species of boreal-nesting birds in interior Alaska: Lesser Yellowlegs (Tringa flavipes), Olive-sided Flycatcher (Contopus cooperi), and Rusty Blackbird (Euphagus carolinus). The data are compiled from several monitoring programs: Alaska Landbird Monitoring Survey, Alaska Off-road Point-count Program, Susitna...

Gene transcription in Pacific Salmon Gene transcription in Pacific Salmon

This data release contains one table with gene transcription results from muscle samples collected from fish occupying freshwater in various Alaskan watersheds. Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) results from fish included in this data release are published in a separate data release available at https://doi.org/10.5066/P13ZYKWR.

Population Genetic Data of Breeding and Wintering King Eiders (Somateria spectabilis) Population Genetic Data of Breeding and Wintering King Eiders (Somateria spectabilis)

This data release includes one table of nuclear microsatellite genotypes and mitochondrial DNA haplotypes from the cytochrome b region in King Eider. This information was used to determine levels of population genetic differentiation among breeding and wintering sites of King Eiders (Somateria fischeri).

Baseline Health Parameter Data from Breeding Pacific (Gavia pacifica) and Red-throated Loons (G. stellata) in Northern Alaska, 2023 Baseline Health Parameter Data from Breeding Pacific (Gavia pacifica) and Red-throated Loons (G. stellata) in Northern Alaska, 2023

These data are in four tables relating to complete blood count (CBC), biochemistry, blood gas analysis, corticosterone, serum protein electrophoresis, and sample attribute data of adult Pacific (Gavia pacifica) and Red-throated Loons (G. stellata) breeding in northern Alaska in 2023.

Selenium Concentrations of Adult Female Emperor Geese (Anser canagicus) Breeding on the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, Alaska, 2017 Selenium Concentrations of Adult Female Emperor Geese (Anser canagicus) Breeding on the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, Alaska, 2017

These data are in one table relating to the selenium concentration (μg/g) in whole blood of adult female emperor geese (Anser canagicus) sampled on the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, Alaska in June 2017.

Polar Bear Microsatellite Data Southern Beaufort Sea 2010-2023 Polar Bear Microsatellite Data Southern Beaufort Sea 2010-2023

This data set provides polar bear microsatellite genotypes derived from twenty loci (CPH9, CXX20, CXX110, CXX173, G1A, G10B, G10C, G1D, G10H, G10J, G10L, G10M, G10P, G10U, G10X, MU50, MU51, MU59, MSUT2, 145P07). Blood, buccal swab, skin, and hair samples for microsatellite genetic analysis were collected from polar bears from the Southern Beaufort Sea between 1981 and 2023. Blood, buccal...
