Tundra Tussocks in Alaska's National Parks (audio described)
Переглядів 201Рік тому
Tussocks are small mounds commonly found in the Arctic tundra and in subarctic forest wetlands. Most tussocks are made by a sedge known as "cotton grass" that thrives in the cold, wet, Arctic environment. Tussocks make good places for birds and rodents to hide their nests.

Black Spruce in Alaska's National Parks (audio described)
Переглядів 116Рік тому
Black spruce is well adapted to life in the north. It can survive in many places other tree species can't. This small evergreen is found most in lowlands with poorly drained soils. Often, the ground is underlain by permafrost and only thaws in the top couple feet. This would create challenging conditions for almost any other species of tree.

Birch, Aspen, and Poplar in Alaska's National Parks (audio described)
Переглядів 175Рік тому
All the broadleaf forests in Interior Alaska are composed of just three tree species: aspen, birch, and poplar. They all look similar, but there are some differences. All three species resprout and grow quickly after fires and are considered early successional species that are often replaced by more long-lived and shade-tolerant spruce.

Pingos in Alaska's Arctic National Parks (audio described)
Переглядів 230Рік тому
Pingos are hills that rise abruptly out of flat landscapes of the Alaskan arctic. When lakes dry up, the unfrozen ground that was once protected beneath the lake is exposed and freezes. The ice expands upward, and ping! The result is a pingo. Pingos provide important habitat for foxes and other arctic animals. As permafrost melts, pingos collapse.

Ice Wedges in Alaska's National Parks (audio described)
Переглядів 192Рік тому
Ice wedges can resemble a giant quilt when seen from the air and form only where permafrost is found. During very cold weather, solidly frozen ground can shrink and crack. When snow melts in spring, water runs into the cracks and freezes, which causes the cracks to grow. Most cracks are preserved beneath the ground surface. If the ground above ice wedges is disturbed by vehicle traffic or warme...

Muito lindo esse lugar é um verdadeiro paraíso.
Beaucoup de beaux discours, mais personne sur place pour filmer au moment des faits.
Thank you! 145 years old -- what a surprise. Videos like this should be on the curriculum of all northern schools.
Pretty similar to our British Columbia species... We just have several others. Very helpful. I'm trying to practice identifying the Aspen Poplar and Birch varieties in our woodlands.
There is a saying, behind every tree in Alaska is a woman. How desolate is that.
live with it you cannot stop natural disasters get a proper job stop wasting time and money
What a great video! 🙋
Hello AlaskaNPS my name is Judah brediger I’m from arizona state and have wished to see this place in real life how would I be able to do this
So cool
Your efforts and sacrifice are appreciated. I realize that this video has aged but still, science builds on science.
This shit is terrifying.
I was there working as a young man.
Ya real user friendly, the system doesn't work. We can not select a park if there is none in the drop down menu.
Fascinating. I hope we, as humans, can keep these beautiful birds around.
Its funny at these people are using inuit tool, the ulu.
No one?
Interesting info for those of us who live in tropical areas
sustainable forest
Nice video, thank you for sharing
1 3/4 diameter = 145 years old 🤯 A person could monitor a single tree their entire life and barely notice any growth. That’s incredible.
What was the point of this video?
Is this your most poplar video?
Horrible music
Man Made Climate Change is a HOAX!!!
nICE wedges Informative, thank you. Knowing about this geological (?) process helps me understand the world a bit better. Tangentially, a tour of Iceland (driving the highway 1 road around the entire island) offered many lovely views of erosion, plant growth, water accumulation & freezing, and glacial shaping of earth. A worthwhile vacation spot.
Very cool
Where can I sign up? Best Wishes from Montana! M.H.
Wonderful stuff 👍
My father was stationed there for the duration of the war.

I would like to see a MAGA TSUNAMI!!!!
My great grandparents (Edlunds) back in 1914 near Knik were able to file for 320 acre homesteads. My uncle Fritzler near Wasilla sold some of his to Sears Roebuck and Walmart years later. Mom was one of the first Caucasians born in the Matanuska Valley, Knik in 1914. The Colonists were only allowed 40 acre homesteads. They were given a loan of I believe was $4000.00, not a gift as most people believe, and they paid it back.
wow i love these dances.
Great documentary 👍👍
Everybody needs to watch the 2004 tsunami documentary. Then watch the movie The Impossible. One is a documentary of survivors from 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. 230,000 + people died. The Impossible movie portrayed the actual event very well. Thank me later
Tony DeGange... "Well it's unusual... these die offs occur every once in a while.. the geographic spread of it is really huge..." Fucking duh! Who are these idiots and how could they not mention issues like FUKUSHIMA and the 5G/IoT/military testing going on in AK. Tools.
some of these guys are real scientists.....you gotta wear glasses to be a scientist
11 or 12 miles... The hell with Mount Everest! ;)
What a bunch of crap..
That intro music is the most stereotypical 70's music I've heard in years. :D
As a keen observer of great globule events it’s a pity they could not have shown! What occurred 🫣
High quality content here
To bad no video 📸
Great video. It as fun to see my Dad and Uncle as part of the Old Timers group in it. They have been coming up there since 1988 to the Silver Salmon Creek Lodge. I got to go with them this year and it was absolutely amazing. Hope to return next year. Lake Clark is a beautiful and a natural wonder.
My wife and I were here 9 years ago. Just a stunning place. So beautiful. So wild. Kind of takes your breath away.
My wife and I were here 9 years ago. Everything they claim in this video is true. Bears are everywhere, it not unusual to see 25-30 in a day. And up close! Then there is the awesome beauty. Just stunning!!
Great work by everyone involved. Thanks!
They said it was the biggest they've ever seen, but no one actually saw it?
It's kinda nice to know that the Earth is still big enough that enormous & cataclysmic things can happen, and no-one notices...
Music is louder than the speaking, cant hear what they are saying!!!!!
