Published by U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service | Department of the Interior | Catalog Last Checked: March 04, 2026 at 06:49 AM | Dataset Last Updated: February 19, 2025 at 12:00 AM
This polygon layer contains extents of Elodea infestations identified within the Anchorage, Alaska municipality. Polygons were created in the field using the ESRI's Field Map application. Sampling protocol follows "Fulkerson, J. (2023). Standard Operating Procedure for Elodea Detection in Alaska Lakes. Alaska Center for Conservation Science". Once Elodea were detected at a given site, the crew will delineate the extent of the Elodea infestation, either visually or using rake throws and draw a polygon in the Field Map application delineating the extent of a given infestation.
