AKPCTR_DEM is a 50-meter resolution, bare-earth digital elevation model (DEM) in raster (geotiff) format. The perhumid (wettest) region of the North American coastal temperate rainforest (PCTR) extends along the coast of British Columbia and southeast Alaska between approximately 50.57 and 59.6 degrees north latitude.The extent of this dataset includes all of the Alaska and Canada watersheds that discharge into southeast Alaska coastal waters, which covers essentially the northern half of the PCTR. **General Methods:** Using Desktop ArcGIS version 10.3.1, the following three elevation datasets were combined to create a continuous DEM for the Alaska perhumid coastal temperate rainforest (AKPCTR) watersheds: 1)...
These files include a derived 50 meter spatial resolution Compound Topographic (or Wetness) Index ([CTI or TWI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topographic_Wetness_Index)) and Flow Accumulation (as represented by specific catchment area, SCA) calculated from a continuous, transboundary DEM developed across the Alaska perhumid coastal temperate rainforest (AKPCTR). The extent of this dataset includes all of the Alaska and Canada watersheds that discharge into southeast Alaska coastal waters, which covers essentially the northern half of the full PCTR. The transboundary DEM used to calculate the CTI can be here: [link](http://ckan.snap.uaf.edu/dataset/a-continuous-transboundary-50-meter-dem-for-the-alaska-perhumid-coastal-temperate-rainforest-ak06b59)...
