Offshore baseline for the sheltered East Beaufort Sea, Alaska coastal region (U.S. Canadian Border to the Hulahula River) generated to calculate shoreline change rates
Description
This dataset includes a reference baseline used by the Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS) to calculate rate-of-change statistics for the sheltered north coast of Alaska coastal region between the U.S. Canadian Border to the Hulahula River for the time period 1947 to 2010. This baseline layer serves as the starting point for all transects cast by the DSAS application and can be used to establish measurement points used to calculate shoreline-change rates.
