Eastern Denali Fault Surface Trace Map, Eastern Alaska and Adjacent Canada Eastern Denali Fault Surface Trace Map, Eastern Alaska and Adjacent Canada

This data release provides three geospatical datasets showing the surface trace of the Eastern Denali Fault between the Alaska-Yukon international border and the village of Haines Junction, Yukon, Canada. The datasets are: (1) a photogrammetry-based digital elevation model (DEM; average resolution of 4 m/pixel), (2) 13 digital aerial photo orthomosaics, and (3) a detailed (1:2,000 to 1...

Gulf Watch Alaska Nearshore Component: Monitoring Site Locations from Prince William Sound, Katmai National Park and Preserve, and Kenai Fjords National Park Gulf Watch Alaska Nearshore Component: Monitoring Site Locations from Prince William Sound, Katmai National Park and Preserve, and Kenai Fjords National Park

These data are part of the Gulf Watch Alaska (GWA) long term monitoring program, nearshore monitoring component. Specifically, these data describe site locations for rocky intertidal, mussel sampling, soft sediment bivalve sampling, and eelgrass bed sampling in the northern Gulf of Alaska within the GWA program. The dataset consists of two comma separated files exported from a Microsoft...

Blood Parasite Infection Data from Blue-winged Teal, Canada (Alberta, Saskatchewan) and USA (Texas, Louisiana), 2012-2013 Blood Parasite Infection Data from Blue-winged Teal, Canada (Alberta, Saskatchewan) and USA (Texas, Louisiana), 2012-2013

This data set includes age, sex, location, and blood parasite infection data from Blue-winged teal (Anas discors) captured in Canada (Alberta, Saskatchewan) and the USA (Texas, Louisiana) in 2012-2013. Infection data for three different genera of blood parasites are given as are GenBank accession numbers for genetic sequences obtained from positive infections.

These data were collected to gain insights into the diet composition of Chukchi Sea polar bears. These data were collected to gain insights into the diet composition of Chukchi Sea polar bears.

Specimen and Genetic Information for Phylogeny of Blue-winged Ducks (Anas spp.), 2001-2011 Specimen and Genetic Information for Phylogeny of Blue-winged Ducks (Anas spp.), 2001-2011

Data set containing specimen information and GenBank accession numbers for five nuclear DNA introns and mitochondrial DNA control region sequence information for the blue-winged duck complex of species sampled in Africa, Asia, Australia, and North and South America.

Point Measurements of Surface Mass Balance, Eklutna Glacier, Alaska, 2008-2015 Point Measurements of Surface Mass Balance, Eklutna Glacier, Alaska, 2008-2015

This dataset consists of a time-series of direct measurements of glacier surface mass balance, at Eklutna Glacier, Alaska. It includes seasonal measurements of winter snow accumulation and summer snow and ice ablation.

Avian Point Count, Habitat, and Covariate Data for Subarctic Bird Abundance, Seward Peninsula, Alaska, 2012-2014 Avian Point Count, Habitat, and Covariate Data for Subarctic Bird Abundance, Seward Peninsula, Alaska, 2012-2014

This data package contains three tables: avian counts by species, habitat type, a covariate information used for analysis of bird surveys conducted between 2012 and 2014 on the Seward Peninsula, Alaska, as part of the USGS Changing Arctic Ecosystems Initiative. We conducted 1,208 point counts on 12 study blocks from 2012-2014 in northwestern Alaska, using repeated surveys to account for...

Fatty Acid Signature Data of Potential Yellow-billed Loon Prey in the Arctic Coastal Plain of Alaska, 2009-2011 Fatty Acid Signature Data of Potential Yellow-billed Loon Prey in the Arctic Coastal Plain of Alaska, 2009-2011

This dataset contains fatty acid data expressed as mass percent of total fatty acids for several species potentially preyed upon by yellow-billed loons. These data were utilized in a quantitative fatty acid signature analysis to estimate the diet of yellow-billed loons nesting on the Arctic Coastal Plain of Alaska.

Summer Activity Sensor Data from Collars Deployed on Female Polar Bears in the Chukchi Sea 1989 to 1995 and Southern Beaufort Sea 1989 to 2014 Summer Activity Sensor Data from Collars Deployed on Female Polar Bears in the Chukchi Sea 1989 to 1995 and Southern Beaufort Sea 1989 to 2014

These are data collected from two types of activity sensors housed within collars deployed on female polar bears in the Chukchi and southern Beaufort Seas during the months of July through October between 1989 and 2014. Mercury tip-switches were deployed 1989 to 2009 and accelerometers were deployed 2009-2014. Activity sensor readings were related to habitats used by polar bears as...
