During our research surveys, and with the help of trained observers on commercial fishing vessels, we systematically collect and analyze information on what Alaska groundfish eat, and the physical environment where their prey is found.
Deep corals are widespread throughout Alaska, including the continental shelf and upper slope of the Gulf of Alaska, the Aleutian Islands, the eastern Bering Sea, and extending as far north as the Beaufort Sea. Coral distribution, abundance and species assemblages differ among geographic regions.
6 Δεκ 2022 · Deep-sea corals are a vital part of Alaska’s productive ecosystems and provide important habitat for commercially important fish. Understanding what these corals need to reproduce and survive is essential to protect critical habitat and predict climate effects.
5 Ιουλ 2023 · In colder oceans, especially in high latitudes and arctic regions, animals throughout the food chain, from zooplankton to whales, produce or accumulate lipids to store energy for future use when food is less plentiful or absent.
Six food chain examples for forest, tundra, wetland, and ocean are shown in bold letters. Make food webs by using the other foods of each living thing (listed in small letters below its name) to find other interconnections.
River food webs and salmon productivity in Southeast Alaska. ACRC supports scientists studying food web dynamics in the salmon-rich streams of Southeast Alaska, which helps inform freshwater fisheries management in the face of climate change.
The Alaska region is made up of 5 distinct ecosystems: the Gulf of Alaska (GOA), Aleutian Islands (AI), Eastern Bering Sea (EBS), Beaufort Sea, and the Chukchi Sea (Alaskan Arctic).
