Data

The name of Barrow, AK, changed to Utqiaġvik, AK in 2016. These data are derived from a database that predates the name transition, and thus abbreviations and raw data files usually reference the outdated name (Barrow). The Inupiaq name (Utqiaġvik) should be used in any derivative work or publications.

Data used in the analyses, which represent a snapshot of ongoing data collection at the time of analyses and in some instances have had further processing or qa/qc applied, can be found within:

/data/BARROW_ATQASUK

Please note that raw data for ongoing collections for these datasets (archived in a slightly different format) can be found at:
