Alaska has relatively few invasive plants, and most of them are found only along the state's limited road system. One of the most widely distributed invasives in the state, Melilotus alba Medik., or sweetclover, has been sown both as a forage crop and as a roadside stabilization species. Melilotus has recently been found to have moved from roadsides to the flood plains of at least three glacial rivers. This species has aggressively colonized the lower Stikine River flood plain and occurs there in dense, monospecific stands. It is at an earlier stage of colonization of the Matanuska River and Nenana River flood plains as well. We are developing a network model to examine the spatial relationships among roads, river...

The increasing awareness and threat of exotic and invasive flora in Alaska necessitated a preliminary survey of exotic plant distribution for the nearly 2 million acre Kenai National Wildlife Refuge in Southcentral Alaska. As a Biological Technician Intern at the Refuge my primary responsibility was to develop, write and begin implementation of a plan to survey exotic, invasive and noxious flora. In addition, I was also involved in various side projects including dendrochronological dating of cabin logs and miscellaneous projects such as snowmachine trail use monitoring, double-crested cormorant nest counts and burn severity assessment at the 2005 Glacier Creek fire on Tustumena Lake. The following report details...

Northern pike, Esox lucius, are not native to aquatic habitats of southcentral Alaska south of the Alaska Range. Introduction of northern pike into these freshwater systems may have deleterious effects on native fish, including various species of Pacific salmon. This report summarizes the continued effort to restore salmonid habitat by removing invasive northern pike from four freshwater lakes on the Kenai Peninsula.

This report describes the work performed by the Alaska Exotic Plant Management Team at Wrangell-St. Elias National Park and Preserve during the 2010 season. Six Alaska Exotic Plant Management Team staff members were stationed at Park Headquarters in Copper Center while working at various locations within the park and preserve. Invasive plant inventories and treatments occurred around the following locations: along the McCarthy and Nabesna roads, along the Copper, Chitina, and Nizina rivers, at other locations in the Copper Basin, and at several backcountry destinations within park lands. Invasive plant infestations were mapped using Trimble GeoXT units and manual weeding was performed with the help of volunteers,...
