Toward a Circumarctic Lakes Observation Network: Lake Biogeochemistry Data
About half of the Arctic Coastal Plain of Alaska is covered with lakes and drained lake basins, making these features the dominant landscape elements and a crucial component of the Arctic system. Using in situ measurements, field surveys, and remote sensing/GIS technologies, this project provides ra...
