  • Revegetation in Arctic and Subarctic North America --A Literature Review Relevant to the Rehabilitation of Abandoned Oil and Gas Fields in Alaska
    .,• DRAR Revegetation in Arctic and Subarctic North America --A Literature Review Relevant to the Rehabilitation of Abandoned Oil and Gas Fields in Alaska Karen L. Oakley Habitat Biologist Habitat Division Alaska Department of Fish and Game Anchorage, Alaska June 29, 1984 ABSTRACT Written to provide Habitat Division staff with the background information necessary to review oil and gas field rehabilitation plans, this paper describes p1 ant succession in tundra and taiga, summarizes results from recent seeding projects, and recommends guidelines. The recommended strategy relies on the natural recolonization potential of tundra and taiga by advocating that topsoil be stockpiled and reused. Topsoil contains nutrients and plant propagules, and, if replaced, seeding should only be necessary on erodible slopes. If seeding is required, a native species mix should be sown. Reliance on native species, whether seeded naturally or artificially, will enhance restoration and reduce costs. The applicability of these methods for rehabilitating North Slope oilfields is unproven, and more research is recommended. -i- TABLE of CONTENTS Page No. Abstract................................................. i List of Tables ........................................... iii Introduction............................................. 1 Definitions......................................... 1 Significance and Need for this Review ..•••••••.••••• 2 Revegetation through Natural Succession ••.••••••••••.•••• 6 Succession after Disturbance of Tundra ..••••••••.••• 7 Succession

  • Parks Highway Road Log
    Bell’s Travel Guides Parks Highway Road Log Mile by Mile Description of the Parks Highway so you always know what lies ahead. Anchorage, Alaska to Fairbanks, Alaska Over twelve years and $150 million went into the completion of this route which extends through 358 miles/576 km of Alaska's most rugged terrain. Yet this highway need not be feared, because it is the state's widest and best year-round road. There are over 40 bridges to cross with the longest being a 1050-foot span of the Susitna River at mile 104. The most spectacular, Hurricane Gulch Bridge, at mile 174.3 is only half the length of the Susitna Bridge, but it is a breathtaking 254 feet above the white water of Hurricane Creek. Denali, the nation's tallest peak, lies about half way between Anchorage and Fairbanks and can be seen from both areas on a clear day: but there's a much better view from mile 70 at Willow. At mile 104 there is a good view of the three tallest peaks in the Alaska Range: Foraker, Hunter and McKinley, left to right. At mile 132.5 you enter Denali State Park. Denali "The Great One" is the Indian name for North America's tallest peak. Perhaps the most spectacular view from the highway of this 20,320-foot mountain comes at mile 134.5. The mileage figures in the following highway description correspond to the numbers appearing on the mileposts in place along most of the highway. The description begins in Anchorage and follows the route's 358 miles to Fairbanks.

    INTERIOR TRAILS NEWSLETTER Dedicated to the preservation and maintenance of trails in interior Alaska July 2019 SPECIAL STATE BUDGET REPORT TRAIL PROGRAMS HANGING IN STATE BUDGET NEGOTIATIONS LIMBO Nothing new has happened with the three state trails programs in regard to the state budget. The Legislature has passed the state Operating Budget and sent it to Gov. Dunleavy, who is studying it and pondering whether to sign it or veto some or all of it. However, none of the three state trail programs (Recreational Trails Program, Land and Water Conservation Fund, and Snowmobile Trails Program) are in the operating budget. They are all in the FY20 Capital Budget, which hat has not yet been passed. A conference committee must be appointed for the FY20 Capital Budget to be negotiated. While the capital budget is not included on the second special session call, legislators and staffers are hoping that it will come up and be passed this July in a special session. INTERIORWIDE FAIRBANKS BOROUGH TRAILS CHALLENGE RUNS THROUGH SEPT 30 How many trails can you explore this summer? Take the Fairbanks Trails Challenge!

  • Systematic List of Bird Species Seen
    Alaska 2016 Ian Merrill Alaska: 28th May to 13th June 2016 Introduction: Where Any birder who has ever flicked through the pages of the Sibley Guide is sure to have dreamt of visiting Alaska, a destination of mouth-watering avian possibilities, unrivalled scenery and a heavyweight mammalian backup, which combine to provide one of our planet’s iconic wildlife viewing destinations. Bird species such as Spectacled Eider, Bristle-thighed Curlew, Red-legged Kittiwake, Crested Auklet, Tufted Puffin and Smith’s Longspur represent some of the most spectacular and sough-after species in the Holarctic, and are freely available in unforgettable settings of windswept sea-cliffs, never-ending taiga forests, flat, featureless tundra, and bitterly cold packice. Still one of the world’s great wildernesses, Alaska is a land where Grizzly Bears and Wolves still roam freely, crossing colourful wildflower meadows against backdrops of rugged snow-capped peaks, and where a Moose, a Porcupine or a Musk Ox can halt one’s journey at any moment. Here vast glaciers creak and groan, before depositing the next icebergs into the Bering Sea, Orcas patrol icy-cold waters and Polar Bears pick their way through the shattered, uplifted forms of the frozen Arctic Ocean. Our action-packed two-and-a-half-week tour of this exceptional State lived up to all expectations and exceeded many, to provide one of my most memorable birding trips ever. The following pages give an insight into what one may expect in this unique environment, which is never short of surprises. They are written to provide an update on where best to search for all of the region’s specialities and give tips on how not to get caught out by the many idiosyncrasies of this somewhat non-conformist region.

  • Cultural Resource Plan for the Denali Highway Lands, Central Alaska
    ii CULTURAL RESOURCE PLAN FOR THE DENALI HIGHWAY LANDS, CENTRAL ALASKA By Richard VanderHoek October 2011 Office of History and Archaeology Division of Parks and Outdoor Recreation Alaska Department of Natural Resources 550 West 7th Avenue, Suite 1310 Anchorage, Alaska 99501-3565 OFFICE OF HISTORY AND ARCHAEOLOGY REPORT NUMBER 112 iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The author would like to thank the numerous Department of Natural Resources, Division of Mining, Land and Water, and Division of Parks and Outdoor Recreation personnel for providing information and advice as well as reading and commenting on drafts of this plan. Other agencies that have provided assistance and information that have improved this plan include the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, National Park Service and Bureau of Indian Affairs. It is the hope of the author and the Office of History and Archaeology that this plan is a useful tool in the management of the cultural resources in the Denali Highway region. iv ABSTRACT In 2003 the Bureau of Land Management began the process of conveying 200,000 acres of land in several blocks to the State in areas north of the Denali Highway in central Alaska, as part of statehood land selections. One of these, termed Denali Block I, contains the northern fifth of the Tangle Lakes Archaeological District (TLAD), a 226,660 acre unit listed in the National Register of Historic Places. This document is intended to provide guidance in the management of the cultural resources on state lands in the TLAD, and on other state lands in the Denali Highway region.
