Description
Kenai National Wildlife Refuge staff and partners annually survey for and treat invasive plants on Kenai National Wildlife Refuge.
Data Records
The data in this occurrence resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 7,194 records.
3 extension data tables also exist. An extension record supplies extra information about a core record. The number of records in each extension data table is illustrated below.
This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.

Project Data
Kenai National Wildlife Refuge staff and partners annually survey for and treat non-native plants on Kenai National Wildlife Refuge.
| Title | Kenai National Wildlife Refuge Non-native Plant Plant Surveys |
|---|---|
| Identifier | https://ecos.fws.gov/ServCat/Reference/Profile/144528 |
| Study Area Description | The study area is the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge and its vicinity on the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska. |
Sampling Methods
We annually surveyed for non-native plants visually using field collection and data standards compatible with the Alaska Exotic Plant Information Clearinghouse database (AKEPIC, http://aknhp.uaa.alaska.edu/apps/akepic/).
| Study Extent | The extent of the study is the Kenai National Wildlife Refuge and its vicinity. |
|---|
Method step description:
- We visited mostly human-disturbed locations including roads, trailheads, and trails, where we visually surveyed non-native plants using AKEPIC-compatible field methods and data standards. Most identifications were made in the field by eye. Sometimes plant specimens were collected for identification in the lab. We also treated non-native plants by pulling, trimming, or applying herbicides.
