Historical data recovery for multidisciplinary research on Alaska and the Arctic, 1841-1912
This data is focused on the large-scale recovery of Arctic and North Pacific historical environmental data---amounting to millions of individual observations—and making them available for new research, such as extended retrospective analysis (reanalysis) to study a range of lower-frequency climate p...

This data is focused on the large-scale recovery of Arctic and North Pacific historical environmental data---amounting to millions of individual observations—and making them available for new research, such as extended retrospective analysis (reanalysis) to study a range of lower-frequency climate phenomena and better understand their impact on the Arctic environment.
