Toolik Lake Area Percent Water

Map of the Toolik Lake research area percent water. The amount of water (lakes, ponds, streams, wetlands), strongly affects the reflectance of the land surface over large areas of Alaska. The percent water was based on the number of AVHRR water pixels in each polygon divided by the number of pixels in each polygon.

The classes of water coverage in a polygon were reported as follows: 0%, 1-5%, 5-25%, 25-50%, 50-75%, 75-90%, 90-100%
