| Summary: | This dataset provides classified river channel masks of 17 reaches of 15 Arctic rivers for river bank erosion and accretion rates, as well as, river channel properties such as channel width, bank curvature, and the aspect/orientation of the river banks. These rivers include the: Chandalar River, Alaska, Colville River, Alaska; Indigirka River, Russia; Kolyma River, Russia; Koyukuk River, Alaska; Lena River, Alaska; Noatak River, Alaska; Ob River, Russia; Pechora River, Russia; Tanana River, Alaska, Selawik River, Alaska; Taz River, Russia; Yana River, Russia; Yenisei River, Russia; and the Yukon River, Alaska. The dataset was generated from a total of 129 images including: Landsat, higher resolution satellite imagery, and aerial photography over time periods ranging from the 1970s and 2016. A full list of the image dates, row and path (for Landsat), and pixel resolutions is provided in the dataset. Masks for the Chandalar River, Tanana River, and Yukon at Holy Cross were obtained from Brown et al. (2020). ... |
