Percent landcover per SASAP region and Hydrologic Unit (HUC8) boundary for Alaskan watersheds

This dataset was created to assess the percentages of various landcovers in each SASAP region and each
HUC8 watershed of Alaska (forest/shrub/barren/wetland). The 2010 National Land Cover Dataset ( "2005 North American Land Cover at 250 m
spatial resolution. Produced by Natural Resources Canada/Canadian Center for Remote Sensing (NRCan/CCRS), United States Geological Survey
(USGS); Insituto Nacional de Estadística y Geografía (INEGI), Comisión Nacional para el Conocimiento y Uso de la Biodiversidad (CONABIO)
and Comisión Nacional Forestal (CONAFOR).”) was combined with the "sasap_regions.zip" shapefile (located here:
https://knb.ecoinformatics.org/#view/urn:uuid:2c1c26fc-bfb9-4b6a-8d4a-0be8e61c4deb) to create the shapefile, "regions_slope_shp.zip"
and with the "sasap_watersheds_gapfix.zip" shapefile (located here: https://knb.ecoinformatics.org/#view/urn:uuid:2b5ab57e-38ec-4bc9-8290-f080ec0befb4)
to create the shapefile "watersheds_slope_shp.zip". CSV versions of the resulting shapefiles are also archived. The included python script,
which was used to merge the data, outlines the process in more detail. Also included in this dataset are two figures. One shows the human footprint for Alaska
and the western United States, which is derived from the original 2010 National Land Cover raster. The second is a figure showing forest cover by watershed in Southeast
Alaska, created using code found in Jeanette Clark, Rachel Carlson, and Jared Kibele. General mapping functions for data associated with the State of Alaska's
