説明
The Alaska Exotic Plants Information Clearinghouse (AKEPIC) is a database and mapping application that provide geospatial information for non-native plant species in Alaska and neighboring Canadian Territories. These products are the result of an ongoing cooperation among the U.S. Forest Service, National Park Service, Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Department of Natural Resources Plant Material Center, and Alaska Center for Conservation Science (ACCS) in support of the Alaska Committee for Noxious and Invasive Pest Management (CNIPM) and the Strategic Plan for Noxious and Invasive Plants Management in Alaska. ACCS administers the mapping application, database, and website associated with the project; project funding is granted by collaborators and contributed by users. These data are primarily intended to support the identification of problem species and infestations, thus promoting early detection and rapid response across Alaska and are additionally used in a variety of research and modeling activities. ACCS tracks all non-native plants known to occur in Alaska. In addition, ACCS has compiled biographies for over half of the 350 non-native plant species that are known or likely to occur in Alaska. In collaboration with biologists, land managers, and weed scientists across the state, ACCS has developed an invasive plant ranking system that helps evaluate the potential invasiveness and impacts of non-native plants to natural areas in Alaska (Carlson et al. 2008). With funding support from the US Forest Service, the Alaska Association of Conservation Districts, and the University of Alaska, we have ranked approximately 170 non-native plant species to date.

収集方法
Field data collection is generally designed to meet each user’s objectives. AKEPIC has no specific recommendations for sampling design; however, certain information is required for upload to the database. Required fields are denoted on the field data form and data entry form and are discussed in the ‘Entering AKEPIC Data in the Office’ section of this manual. Because records for which required fields are not populated cannot be added to the database, we recommend that potential contributors review these requirements prior to beginning field work.

| Quality Control | We expect contributors to verify the quality of their data prior to submission. The accuracy of the location and taxonomic identity of the population rests entirely on the field observer and/or the representative submitting the data. Please ensure that all required data fields are populated and, when possible, that a unique site code is assigned to each infestation. Before submitted data are uploaded to the AKEPIC database, the database administrator performs a series of checks for completeness, logical consistency, and general quality of the data. If problems are discovered that cannot be rectified by the database administrator, the problem records will be returned to the contributor for correction.
