Laura Hubbard of the USGS Upper Midwest Water Science Center takes water chemistry measures on the Alaska Peninsula as part of research to understand how long influenza viruses remain viable in the environment.
One of the primary missions of the USGS is to address the science needs of Department of Interior bureaus, particularly those that manage natural resources and lands. This mission is fulfilled through the research and other activities of USGS scientists but also specifically through three USGS nationally-funded programs listed below.
Return to Ecosystems
Each year, USGS scientists work with staff of other Department of Interior agencies to learn about their science information needs and how best to address those questions. On the pages below, we describe three specific programs that fund this collaborative work with the National Park Service, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management.
Below are other science projects associated with this project.
Fish and Aquatic Ecology
Changing Arctic Ecosystems
Terrestrial Ecosystems
Ecosystems Analytics
Wildlife Disease and Environmental Health in Alaska
Molecular Ecology Laboratory
Marine Ecosystems
Corrected Fire Perimeters of Alaska's National Wildlife Refuges

Andrew Reeves retrieving samples within Izembek National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska as part of USGS research to investigate the persistence of avian influenza viruses in North American wetlands. USGS scientists and colleagues found that influenza A viruses may remain infectious in surface waters of northern wetlands for more than seven months.
