Description:
Abstract:
These data are part of the Gulf Watch Alaska (GWA) long term monitoring program, nearshore monitoring component. Specifically, these data describe site locations for rocky intertidal, mussel sampling, soft sediment bivalve sampling, and eelgrass bed sampling in the northern Gulf of Alaska within the GWA program. The dataset consists of two comma separated files exported from a Microsoft Excel workbook. The data consists of 1. rocky intertidal, mussel sampling, and soft sediment site location information, and 2. eelgrass bed locations. Sampling will be conducted in Katmai National Park and Preserve (KATM), Kenai Fjords National Park (KEFJ), Prince William Sound (PWS) and to a lesser extent on the Lake Clark National Park and Preserve (LACL). Sites from a related project that provides similar data from Kachemak Bay (KBAY) are included here.
Purpose:
This data set contains specific location information for the sampling sites of the nearshore component of the Gulf Watch Alaska long term monitoring program. The number and location of sampling units differ among metrics, but in general the design calls for sampling at multiple locations within each area. Sampling locations were selected to provide a random, spatially balanced distribution. The design allows for detection of large temporal or spatial-scale changes. For some metrics the design will also allow for detection of changes that may occur on a more localized scale.
Supplemental_Information:
These site locations are a component of the nearshore monitoring portion of the Gulf Watch Alaska (GWA) program. The Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Trustee Council and state and federal agencies are supporting a five-year, $12 million long-term monitoring program in the Gulf of Alaska region affected by the 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill. The monitoring program, called GulfWatch, includes 25 principal scientists and seeks to provide data to identify and help understand the impacts of multiple ecosystem factors on the recovery of injured resources. This program is expected to be 20 years in total length, but planned and funded in five-year increments. It builds upon the past 23 years of restoration research and monitoring by the EVOSTC and federal and state agencies. Monitoring efforts will span a range of species and marine conditions, organized in three components, with integrated data management and synthesis of science information provided across the components. The program includes sites in Prince William Sound, lower Cook Inlet and the outer Kenai Peninsula coast. Environmental Drivers component - oceanography, plankton. Nearshore component - intertidal invertebrate and algae, sea otters, seabirds, lingering oil. Pelagic component - whales, seabirds, forage fish.

Data_Quality_Information:
Attribute_Accuracy:
Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
Site end points were spatially verified by repeated site visits to confirm or edit their correct position. Physical site locations were initially established and marked with stainless steel marker plates bolted to the rock (for rocky intertidal and mussel sites) or 18-24 inch rebar stakes with garden hose covers pounded into the site (soft sediment sites). GPS coordinates were collected using hand held Garmin GPS Map 76csx units set for NAD83. Waypoints and marker locations were verified and refined in subsequent years by additional observers as they re-located sites for repeat sampling. Uncertainty may exist for site locations as sometimes marker plates and rebar stakes are difficult to find in the intertidal. The program is in the process of building a 'site finder' book for each region for field crews to use when re-visiting sites. In addition to site coordinates it will include photos to aid in finding site markers or starting points for transects.
Logical_Consistency_Report:
These data have been checked for accuracy by visually inspecting plots using GIS tools as well as finding the site markers each year during field sampling events.
Completeness_Report: The data set is complete.
Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:
Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:
A formal accuracy assessment of the horizontal positional information in the data set has not been conducted. A site is here defined as an approximately 50 to 100-meter section of coastline and the water directly adjacent to it. Site coordinates refer to the marker placed at the starting end point of the site. For rocky and mussel sites this is a stainless steel plate bolted to the rock. For soft sediment sites this is a length of rebar with a piece of garden hose pounded into the sediment and a marker plate attached to the rebar. Eelgrass coordinates mark four corner buoys that outline the perimeter of the bed being monitored or a center point of the bed as indicated in the data.

Methodology:
Methodology_Type: Field
Methodology_Description:
Discrete sampling sites used to sample intertidal invertebrates and algae on sheltered rocky shorelines were selected using a generalized random tessellation stratified (GRTS) sampling scheme. This design provides a random yet spatially balanced distribution of sites within block. A GRTS design also allows for expansion or contraction of the number of sites to be sampled over time by pre-selecting a large number of sites that are ordered with respect to priority. Thus, sampling sites can be added or deleted without compromising the statistical or spatial integrity of the design. Rocky intertidal sampling sites were selected using a Windows-based GRTS sampling software program.

Methodology:
Methodology_Type: Field
Methodology_Description:
Sampling of intertidal invertebrates on sand/gravel beaches, mussels in mussel beds, and eelgrass are sampled at sites of appropriate habitat type that are closest to the randomly selected rocky intertidal sites. We chose to focus samplings for these metrics around the randomly selected rocky sites rather than an independent set of randomly selected sites because of the logistical constraints (a reduction in travel time between sites) and because of a desire to geographically link sites for sampling of all metrics as closely as possible while still maintaining a random component.
Clam and mussel sites were identified by appropriate habitats (unconsolidated sediments for clam and consolidated rocky for mussels) and the presence of clams and mussels.
Transects used for estimating black oystercatcher density were centered on rocky intertidal sites.
Sea otter foraging observations are made at sites wherever sea otters are seen foraging within a 5 km radius of rocky intertidal sampling sites.
Water quality metrics (contaminants in mussels, temperature, and salinity) are measured at sites identified for sampling of intertidal invertebrates on rocky shores. Temperature and salinity are sampled at the rocky intertidal sites and contaminants will be measured in mussels collected from either rocky intertidal or nearby mussel sites.
In addition to sites selected using the GRTS design, sampling has also been conducted at several sites that were selected based on their proximity to locations of probable future impact from shoreline development, sites with historical data of interest, or sites of special interest to local citizens.

Attribute:
Attribute_Label: Site_ID
Attribute_Definition:
Sites are the smallest spatial scale, designating more specific location of mussel sampling sites. These data are designed to be analyzed at the Region level, but site level analyses will also be used. Site codes are a combination of region, block, and site number as well as the type of sampling. Sites RI_01-RI_05, SI_01-SI_05, and MI_01 - MI_05 are used in each intensively sampled block within each region, while Sites RE_01-RE_05, SE_01-SE_05, and ME_01-ME_05 are used in extensively sampled blocks within PWS. R = Rocky Intertidal sampling, S = soft sediment sampling, and M = mussel sampling, I = Intensive block, E = Extensive block. RS and SS sites were rocky selected and soft selected rather than being randomly chosen. Sites also have names (e.g. Kukak) that are easier to use in the field while this formal code incorporates region and block information for more detailed descriptor. Site_ID has also been called Sitecode in some Gulf Watch data sets.

Attribute:
Attribute_Label: Site_Name
Attribute_Definition:
Sites are the smallest spatial scale, designating more specific location of sampling sites. Site names can refer to mussel, rocky intertidal, soft sediment, or eelgrass sampling. These data are designed to be analyzed at the Region level, but site level analyses will also be used. Site_Name is a common name for sampling site that is easier and more intuitive to use in the field than site numbers or codes.

Attribute:
Attribute_Label: Site_ID
Attribute_Definition:
Sites are the smallest spatial scale, designating more specific location of mussel sampling sites. These data are designed to be analyzed at the Region level, but site level analyses will also be used. Site codes are a combination of region, block, and site number as well as the type of sampling. Sites RI_01-RI_05, SI_01-SI_05, and MI_01 - MI_05 are used in each intensively sampled block within each region, while Sites RE_01-RE_05, SE_01-SE_05, and ME_01-ME_05 are used in extensively sampled blocks within PWS. R = Rocky Intertidal sampling, S = soft sediment sampling, and M = mussel sampling, I = Intensive block, E = Extensive block. RS and SS sites were rocky selected and soft selected rather than being randomly chosen. Sites also have names (e.g. Kukak) that are easier to use in the field while this formal code incorporates region and block information for more detailed descriptor. Site_ID has also been called Sitecode in some Gulf Watch data sets.
