The Department of Natural Resources is offering a grant for developing procedures using remote sensing technology to protect winter fish habitat amidst oil and gas activities in Alaska. This project aims to create analysis tools using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) to identify potential fish overwintering areas in the National Petroleum Reserv-Alaska, facilitating better habitat management decisions and monitoring. Closing date: Aug 12, 2008.

| Description: | This project is to develop procedures to utilize current remote sensing technology to assist in management decisions and related monitoring regarding the protection of winter fish habitat among oil and gas surface activities. It will also develop analysis tools for delineating areas of liquid water during the end of winter period in the National Petroleum Reserv-Alaska (NPR-A) by using Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) or other similar technology. These areas will represent potential overwintering habitat for fish. |
