Nearshore bathymetry is a vital link that joins offshore water depths to coastal topography. Seamless water depth information is a critical input parameter for reliable storm surge models, enables the calculation of sediment budgets and is necessary baseline data for a range of coastal management decisions. Funding from the Western Alaska LCC resulted in the purchase of field equipment capable of shallow water measurements in rural settings, allowing collection of nearshore bathymetry around western Alaska communities. The resulting vector data shape files of nearshore bathymetry for Gambell, Savoonga, Golovin, Wales, Shismaref, and Hooper Bay are available by following the link below.
One of the major challenges in understanding changes in coastal processes in western Alaska is the lack of measured ocean data in the region. This project leveraged existing human resources, and physical and computational infrastructure to collect and disseminate oceanographic observations in the Bering Sea. From instrument restoration, transport and deployment, through data streaming, recovery and dissemination, this project considered the end to end supports necessary to gather, promote, and serve oceanographic data along Alaska’s Western coast. Real‐time sea‐state conditions were transmitted via both high and low bandwidth sites, directly benefited emergency managers and local communities, particularly in dealing...

Nearshore bathymetry is a vital link that joins offshore water depths to coastal topography. Seamlesswater depth information is a critical input parameter for reliable storm surge models, enables the calculationof sediment budgets, and is necessary baseline data for a range of coastal development decisions.Bathymetric data collection capabilities of an active coastal geohazard field program operatedby the Alaska Division of Geological & Geophysical Surveys (DGGS) were expanded in 2012. Resultantdatasets presented in this report include nearshore bathymetric measurements of critical shallow-watercoastal areas in the vicinity of six western Alaska communities: Gambell, Golovin, Hooper Bay, Savoonga,Shishmaref, and...
