Data

This data set contains 3 tables containing uranium-lead (U-Pb) isotopic data and crystallization ages of zircon and titanite from igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks collected from the Yukon-Tanana upland of eastern interior Alaska between 2013 and 2019. Bulk samples of igneous and metamorphic rocks were processed into concentrated mineral separates of zircon and (or) titanite in...

This data release includes 2 child items with tracking data for Thick-billed Murres, a seabird species found in the Arctic and regions of the North Pacific and North Atlantic oceans. Child Item 1: "Argos Satellite Tracking Data for Thick-billed Murres (Uria lomvia) - Processed Data" -- Quality-controlled data collected from Argos satellite transmitters. Child Item 2: "Argos Satellite...

This data release includes 2 child items with tracking data for Common Murres, a seabird species that is found in regions of the North Pacific and Atlantic oceans, often in dense breeding colonies on cliffs and in large flocks on the water. Child Item 1: "Argos Satellite Tracking Data for Common Murres (Uria aalge) - Processed Data" -- Quality-controlled data collected from Argos...

This data release includes 2 child items with tracking data for Red-faced Cormorants, a seabird species that is found only in the North Pacific Ocean, breeding and wintering from southern Alaska and throughout the Aleutian Islands to Far Eastern Russia. Child Item 1: "Argos Satellite Tracking Data for Red-faced Cormorants (Phalacrocorax urile) - Processed Data" -- Quality-controlled data...

This data release includes 2 child items with tracking data for Pelagic Cormorants, a seabird species that breeds throughout the northern Pacific Ocean and spends the winter in East Asia and throughout coastal portions of western North America. Child Item 1: "Argos Satellite Tracking Data for Pelagic Cormorants (Phalacrocorax pelagicus) - Processed Data" -- Quality-controlled data...

The USGS mapped geomorphic features in the lower 7.5 kilometers of the Taiya River valley bottom in and near Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park near Skagway, Alaska. This dataset presents delineations of off-main-stem channels and geomorphic surfaces. Boundaries were prepared from 2003 lidar elevation data and updated using 2017 and 2018 aerial orthophotographs at eroding...

This dataset includes soil data collected from various landscapes adjacent to thaw ponds on the North Slope of Alaska between 2012 and 2018. The landscapes include ice-rich polygonal ground found on basin uplands, as well as bluffs and lake edges. At each site a visual description of soil type and texture was performed, and a permafrost probe was used to determine a 'depth to refusal'...

This dataset includes physical, hydraulic, and thermal properties of soils collected in two sub-watersheds in the Noatak River Basin in northwestern Alaska. Physical properties include dry bulk density and porosity. Hydraulic properties include field- and lab-based hydraulic conductivity, soil-water retention data, and parameters used in a common soil-water retention model (van Genuchten...

This dataset includes 15-minute interval data on stream temperature, stage, and discharge from low-order streams in the Yukon River Basin in interior Alaska, collected during the summer months. The depth of the water and temperature were determined using a combined pressure transducer and temperature sensor that was deployed through the summer months. Different sensors were used in each...

his data set documents the width of annual otolith growth increments from Lake Trout collected in lakes within Lake Clark National Park and Preserve, Alaska. The analysis of this data was published in von Biela et al. 2020 (DOI: 10.1111/eff.12566)

This data set describes nucleotide sequence data derived from 18S ribosomal DNA amplified in two fragments. A total of 87 feces from Pacific walrus and 57 marine invertebrates were examined for this study. Samples were collected from the Bering Sea and Chukchi Sea, Alaska. Samples used in the study originated from feces or muscle samples collected in the field from ice floes or benthic...

This data set contains U-Pb isotopic data and ages of zircon and titanite from igneous and metamorphic rocks collected from the western Alaska and northern Aleutian Range of south-central Alaska. The data sets also contain U-Pb isotopic data and ages of detrital zircon from sedimentary and metasedimentary rocks collected in the same region but also from the Taylor and Wood River...
