Point Sampling Data from Eelgrass (Zostera marina), Seaweeds and Selected Invertebrates at Six Embayments and Two Islands at the End of the Alaska Peninsula
January 19, 2022
This dataset is from surveys for the abundance and distribution of eelgrass and seaweeds that were made at six embayments and two offshore islands at the southwestern end of the Alaska Peninsula in August-September 2012. The five tables provide information on percent cover and location of eelgrass and seaweeds, presence and absence of selected invertebrates, locations of eelgrass genetic samples, and environmental conditions within surveyed sites.

Inventory of eelgrass (Zostera marina) and seaweeds at the end of the Alaska Peninsula, August–September 2012:
Coastal communities in Alaska are undergoing rapid environmental change from increasing temperatures and baseline data are needed to monitor potential impacts. We conducted the first surveys of the abundance and distribution of eelgrass (Zostera marina) and seaweeds in the western part of Izembek National Wildlife Refuge at the end of the Alaska Peninsula. Six embayments and two offshore islands w

Eelgrass (Zostera marina) and seaweed abundance along the coast of Nunivak Island, Yukon Delta National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska, 2010
Eelgrass (<em>Zostera marina</em>) is a highly productive seagrass that plays an essential role in the health of the estuarine and coastal ecosystems; however, information about its abundance and distribution is insufficient in the Bering Sea along the Yukon Delta National Wildlife Refuge. We inventoried the spatial extent and abundance of eelgrass and seaweed in Duchikthluk and Shoal bays on Nuni
