Shapefiles produced in ArcGIS that depict the essential fish habitat areas around the coast of Alaska.

This shapefile was used to generate a permafrost map of Alaska that was presented in conjunction with the Ninth International Conference on Permafrost held at the University of Alaska in 2008. The permafrost shapefile is coded with surficial geology, mean annual air temperature (MAAT), primary s...

This is the NHDArea feature class of the NHD geodatabase and contains polygons respresenting areal hydrographic features (non-lake) including inundation area, stream course, etc.. This dataset has been clipped to northern Alaska, converted to a shapefile and projected to Alaska Albers-NAD83 by NS...

This is the NHDFlowline feature class of the NHD geodatabase and contains the core linear network of the surface-water drainage system primarily consisting of streams and artificial paths through polygons such as lakes.

The statewide data set was clipped to northern Alaska by NSSI. The data set contains historical wildland fire perimeters from 1942-2009. This data set is an extract from the Alaska Fire Service-AICC IMS from 5/4/2010 and metadata adapted from akfirehist07_metadata.xml.

As part of the Alaska Department of Fish and Game’s participation in the review of oil spill contingency plans, the Habitat and Restoration Division (H&R) identified 68 of the most environmentally sensitive areas (MESAs) along the Alaska coastline that could be impacted by a marine spill. This in...

Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADFG) specifies the various rivers, lakes and streams or parts of them of the state that are important to the spawning, rearing or migration of anadromous fishes in the anadromous fish Catalog.
