2022 Arctic Strategic Transportation and Resources project (ASTAR) geotechnical data and sample descriptions: Utqiagvik region (Barrow triangle), North Slope, Alaska

Description

2022 Arctic Strategic Transportation and Resources project (ASTAR) geotechnical data and sample descriptions: Utqiagvik region (Barrow triangle), North Slope, Alaska, Raw Data File 2023-13, provides locations, descriptions, and photos of 83 samples from power-auger holes, surface samples, exposures/outcrops, and soil test pits. During the summer of 2022, geologists from the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS) and ASRC Consulting & Environmental Services, LLC (ACES) conducted fieldwork in an area of approximately 12,000 km2 in northwestern Alaska between the communities Utqiavik, Atqasuk, and Wainwright in support of a sand and gravel resource assessment for the Arctic Strategic Transportation and Resources (ASTAR) Project. This data collection is released as a Raw Data File with an open end-user license. The data are available from the DGGS website: http://doi.org/10.14509/31011.
