Description
Through the Changing Arctic Ecosystems initiative, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) strives to inform key resource management decisions for Arctic Alaska by providing scientific information on current and future ecosystem response to a warming climate. Our research is (1) examining critical physical and landscape-scale changes in the environment; (2) assessing key ecological drivers of population change; and (3) projecting future abundance and distribution of focal species, including mammals, birds, fish, and aquatic invertebrates that use the landscapes of the Arctic in different ways and likely will express differently the consequences of changes to the associated ecosystems. This dataset is a list of all bird species observed, and their location, during the 2011-13 field seasons for this project. USGS Alaska Science Center (ASC).

Couverture géographique
This study is being conducted on Alaska's North Slope, on the Arctic Coastal Plain between the Brooks Range and the Arctic Ocean, north of the Arctic Circle (~70° 32' N, -155° 21' W). More specifically, our research is confined to two, 7 km2 study plots, approximately 35 km apart, along the Chipp River, 100 km (60 miles) southeast of the community of Barrow. Each plot exhibits different ecological and climatic characteristics; Chipp North (N 70.686, W-155.304) is coastal and lower lying, while the Chipp South (N 70.395, W -155.407) is more inland, having rolling terrain features.

| Description du domaine d'étude / de recherche | This study is being conducted on Alaska's North Slope, on the ACP between the Brooks Range and the Arctic Ocean, north of the Arctic Circle (~70° 32' N, -155° 21' W). This area is part of the NPR-A, where oil and gas development is expected to increase, and is owned and managed by the BLM. The region consists of low tundra, including sedge, moss, dwarf-shrub wetlands (W2) and tussock-sedge, dwarf-shrub, moist tundra (G4) ecosystems described in the Circumpolar Arctic Vegetation Map (Walker et al. 2005). There is an extensive system of fish-bearing lakes and several major drainage rivers. More specifically, our research is confined to two, 7 km2 study plots, approximately 35 km apart, along the Chipp River, 100 km (60 miles) southeast of the community of Barrow. Each plot exhibits different ecological and climatic characteristics; Chipp North (N 70.686, W-155.304) is coastal and lower lying, while the Chipp South (N 70.395, W -155.407) is more inland, having rolling terrain features. |

Méthodes d'échantillonnage
Bird List – As biologists conducted their field studies they noted all bird species observed. Observations were compiled into a list for each study area (i.e., Chipp North and Chipp South). In the 2013 season, day of observation was not included.
| Etendue de l'étude | Chipp North (N 70.686, W-155.304) is coastal and low lying. |
