ShoreZone Mapping of the Outer Kenai Coast, Alaska Gulf of Alaska Ecosystem Monitoring Project. EXXON VALDEZ Oil Spill Restoration Project Final Report. (Restoration Project 02613)

摘要

This project documented and mapped coastal habitat on the Outer Kenai Coast of Alaska and was funded by the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Trustee Council (EVOS). This report is intended as a general overview of the project and as a description of deliverables. The shoreline was flown and imaged during extremely low tides of June 2002. In addition to the georeferenced imagery, narration on the tapes provides a description of intertidal and subtidal biota, intertidal substrate and morphology and man-made features of interest. The 1,400, km of shoreline is documented on 17 miniDV (digital) videotapes. The video imagery and associated narration are the raw data for characterizing coastal habitat.
