I am currently constructing a data set of Kenai “places” (communities) which includes demographic characteristics from 1980-2014. Most of these data are available publicly but...

A map in PDF format of the Kenai Urban Cluster, as of the 2010 census. Data available from the Alaska Department of Labor and Workforce Development, Research and Analysis Section.

An ESRI Shapefile for use in GIS software that contains data from the 2010 US Census for Alaska at the census block group level. Each geographic unit is identified using Federal...

Web-enabled slider to show change detection on the Kenai Peninsula of areas that have been developed using aerial photography from the 1950s and 2013.

We-enabled change detection slider of Skilak glacier using aerial photography from 1952 and 2013.

Hypoxia (dissolved oxygen < 2 mg L–1) has emerged as a worldwide threat to coastal and estuarine ecosystems. Beyond direct mortality, secondary ecological impacts caused by...

We examine long-term streamflow and mass balance data from two Alaskan glaciers located in climatically distinct basins: Gulkana Glacier, a continental glacier located in the...

We synthesized an expert review of climate change implications for hydroecological and terrestrial ecological systems in the northern coastal temperate rainforest of North...

Polar ice sheets and mountain glaciers, which cover roughly 11% of the Earth's land surface, store organic carbon from local and distant sources and then release it to...

The Coast Mountains of southeast Alaska are currently experiencing some of the highest rates of glacier volume loss on Earth, with unknown implications for proglacial stream...

Community-based observing networks (CBONs) use a set of human observers connected via a network to provide comprehensive data, through observations of a range of environmental...

Hydrologists and climate scientists supported by Alaska EPSCoR are using climate data from four climate data networks on the Kenai Peninsula. These data will be used to study...

The data can be used to look at institutional capacity. Scores are broken into three categories: Technical, Financial, and Managerial. For all questions or concerns pertaining...

Ice wedges are common features of the subsurface in permafrost regions. They develop by repeated frost cracking and ice vein growth over hundreds to thousands of years....

Rock and willow ptarmigan are abundant herbivores that require shrub habitats in arctic and alpine areas. Shrub expansion is likely to increase winter habitat availability for...

Drift-feeding fish are challenged to discriminate between prey and similar-sized particles of debris, which are ubiquitous even in clear-water streams. Spending time and energy...

We created this book to document Nuiqsut and its changing landscape for the people who live there.
