Abstract: |
|
The purpose of this project is to expand the number of documented
and digitized records for the plants of Alaska through a cooperative effort with
the University of Alaska Museum and the USDA NRCS National Plant Data Center (NPDC).
The records will be used to develop a distributional data set (both at the level
of 1:250,000 quadrangles and boroughs) for the
PLANTS Database. The first priority is to finish digitizing the specimens at
the recognized Alaska herbaria of species considered noxious or invasive, the
secondary objective is to digitize on specimen per taxon per 1:250,000.
