We are researching spruce
forests at treeline in Alaska.
During the 1998 field season, we visited 3 major areas of
the state, shown with green arrows. See below for details.

Three major study areas for 1998
-
In the Interior of Alaska, we visited
the White Mountains (off the
Steese Highway). Sites included Nome Creek and Idaho Creek.
-
Also in the interior, we visited
the Alaska Range along the Denali
Highway. Sites included Monahan Flats, Canyon Creek, and Wrangel
View.
-
Finally, we visited the Seward
Peninsula near Council, where we will spend the 1999 field
season.
