Archiving Southwest Alaska's National Park Bird Survey Data in the Avian Knowledge Network (AKN) Database: Project Overview

By U.S. National Park Service

The Southwest Alaska Network (SWAN) of the National Park Service (NPS) is assessing status and monitoring long-term trends of key natural resources or "vital signs" in its five national park units, including: Alagnak Wild River (ALAG), Aniakchak National Monument and Preserve (ANIA), Katmai National Park and Preserve (KATM), Kenai Fjords National Park (KEFJ), and Lake Clark National Park and Preserve (LACL). The goal of this project was to improve the understanding of the status of bird populations in SWAN parks, and to inform management and promotion of public understanding of park resources by making contemporary avian survey data accessible via a nationally recognized avian archival database that is accessible on-line.
