Rocky Intertidal Data from Prince William Sound, Katmai National Park and Preserve, and Kenai Fjords National Park
September 27, 2022
These data are part of the Gulf Watch Alaska (GWA) long-term monitoring program, nearshore monitoring component. The dataset consists of 10 tables of data organized into four folders. The data are presented in Comma Separated Value (CSV) format exported from a Microsoft Access relational database. The tables are: 1) invertebrate taxonomy, 2) limpet size, 3) limpet counts, 4) Nucella, Katharina, and Lirabuccinum counts, 5) rocky intertidal cover, 6) rocky intertidal percent cover, 7) rocky intertidal top layer percent cover, 8) rocky intertidal substrate percent cover, 9) sea star counts, and 10) sea star disease.

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 this warmin
