This data package includes four (4) child items with data from the Gulf Watch Alaska (GWA) long-term monitoring program (nearshore monitoring component) rocky intertidal study.
Child Item One: "Rocky Intertidal Sea Star Size, Count, and Disease Data from Prince William Sound, Katmai National Park and Preserve, and Kenai Fjords National Park". The data include: (1) size and disease state of sea stars, (2) counts of sea stars, and (3) taxonomic classification.
Child Item Two: "Rocky Intertidal Nucella, Lirabuccinum, Katharina, and Lottia Counts from Prince William Sound, Katmai National Park and Preserve, and Kenai Fjords National Park". The data include: (1) counts of Nucella spp., Lottia spp., Lirabuccinum dirum, and Katharina tunicata and (2) taxonomic classification.
Child Item Three: "Rocky Intertidal Invertebrate and Algae Cover from Prince William Sound, Katmai National Park and Preserve, and Kenai Fjords National Park". The data include: (1) intertidal cover, (2) intertidal percent cover, (3) intertidal top layer percent cover, (4) intertidal substrate percent cover, and (5) taxonomic classification.
Child Item Four: "Rocky Intertidal Limpet (Lottia persona) Data from Prince William Sound, Katmai National Park and Preserve, and Kenai Fjords National Park". The data include: (1) limpet (Lottia persona) sizes and (2) limpet counts.
Child Item One: "Rocky Intertidal Sea Star Size, Count, and Disease Data from Prince William Sound, Katmai National Park and Preserve, and Kenai Fjords National Park". The data include: (1) size and disease state of sea stars, (2) counts of sea stars, and (3) taxonomic classification.

Changes in rocky intertidal community structure during a marine heatwave in the northern Gulf of Alaska
Marine heatwaves are global phenomena that can have major impacts on the structure and function of coastal ecosystems. By mid-2014, the Pacific Marine Heatwave (PMH) was evident in intertidal waters of the northern Gulf of Alaska and persisted for multiple years. While offshore marine ecosystems are known to respond to these warmer waters, the response of rocky intertidal ecosystems to...
