This is an SQLite GeoPackage simple feature linestring vector database of the Arctic Coastal Plain survey flow tracks in coordinate reference system EPSG:4326. There is one layer for each year 2007 to 2023. The field”Year” gives the calendar year that the transects were flown, “Stratum” gives the strata name, “NavTransect” gives the transect identifier used for navigation by the pilot (this is not necessarily the same as the design transect), and the “geom” field gives the simple feature Well Known Text geometry data of the approximate flight path recreated from bird observations. See the GitHub site https://github.com/USFWS/ACP-Mapping for more information. This product was produced from the file ACPmapping.R and...

This project aims to estimate spatial and temporal trends of waterfowl and waterbirds on the Arctic Coastal Plain (ACP) of Alaska from 2007 to present. The main approach is motivated by Amundson et al. (2019) using space-time generalized additive models (GAMs, Wood 2017) but with some improvements to handle observer effects and to associate sampling effort to specific spatial locations along a sampled transect similar to Miller et al. (2013). As part of this effort, a major data quality control process was begun in March 2022 that led to the correction of many data errors and re-formatting of the original 2007 to 2023 data to make it more accessible and usable to outside partners (original raw data available here)....

A warmer climate has increased the spread of mountain Pine beetle. Historically, mountain pine beetle populations were limited to southern regions due to cold temperature intolerance. However, increasing winter temperatures has allowed the species to spread further north, contributing to the loss of over 1 million ha of forest in the United States and 9 million ha in Canada.Data on mountain pine beetle damage was compiled by CMP Hi5 Working Group technical team. Aerial detection surveys between 1999–2020 for Montana, Alberta, and Waterton Lakes National Park were compiled and assigned a severity score using the USDA Forest Service classification system. Severity is based on crown mortality from aerial images, with...

The introduction of white pine blister rust, a fungus from Eastern Asia introduced to North America in the early 1900s, has inhibited the persistence of whitebark pine. Once white pine blister rust infects a tree, the fungus girdles branches and then main stem, eventually killing the tree. Since its introduction, white pine blister rust has continued to spread throughout North America with minimal environmental limitations. Within the Crown of the Continent ecosystem, up to 57% of trees have been infected or died due to white pine blister rust.At the time of this analysis, no geospatial data exists for white pine blister rust within the Crown landscape. However, because this rust is most abundant in cool and wet...

This is an SQLite GeoPackage simple feature vector database of spectacled eider relative densities predicted from a generalized additive model across the Arctic Coastal Plain. These density are “relative” because year- or observer-specific detection is not incorporated. However, the estimation model include observer as a random effect and predictions are made after removing the effect of observer (i.e., at the average observer). Each year is a separate layer named by year. Predictions are gridded into cells 750m per side but are trimmed to the ACP survey area, so some cells are smaller. For each year, the variable ‘fit’ gives the expected density, ‘se.fit’ gives the standard error of the fit, ‘Sample.Label’ is an...

This is an SQLite GeoPackage simple feature multilinestring vector database of the Arctic Coastal Plain survey transects in coordinate reference system EPSG:4326. There is one layer for each year 2007 to 2023, although in general the there is a four panel rotation that varies each year. All years are provided because implementation of the panel design varied through time. The field”Year” given the calendar year that the transects were implemented, “Stratum” gives the strata name, “Transect” gives the transect identifier, and the “geom” field gives the simple feature Well Known Text geometry data. Note that these transect are the idealized design and are not an exact record of the true flight path or survey effort....

This is an SQLite GeoPackage simple feature multipolygon vector database of the Arctic Coastal Plain survey area transect density strata. There is only one layer that gives the strata boundaries in EPSG:4326. The field “Statra” gives the strata name and the “geom” field gives the simple feature Well Known Text geometry data. See the GitHub site for more information. This product was produced from the file ACPmapping.R and is simplified from the original strata files distributed at https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/item/65419a58d34ee4b6e05bd001.
