Aquatic Organisms [ds193]

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>This dataset is a subset of the Tuolumne Aquatic Resources Relational Inventory (TARRI) compiled by Brian Quelvog, California Department of Fish and Game. The database focuses on fish, amphibians, insects, crustacean, and other invertebrates, and includes hydrologic information associated with collection sites in inland waterways located in Tuolumne County and the six surrounding counties (Calaveras, Stanislaus, Merced, Mariposa, Mono, and Alpine). Over seventy-five sources of information were used to develop the dataset including aquatic surveys by several agencies, file reports from the California Department of Fish and Game, personal communications, and research articles as well as museum records from institutions such as the California Academy of Sciences. Collection dates for some data are historical (back to 1889), but the majority range from 1979 to 2003. What each record represents Each record represents the collection, identification, and cataloging of one or more specimens of the given taxon under the location, time, and habitat conditions listed in the record.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>

Western Gray Squirrel least-cost corridors for NSNF Connectivity - CDFW [ds1016]

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The northern Sierra Nevada foothills wildlife connectivity project modeled wildlife corridors for 9 focal species between 238 landscape blocks within the northern Sierra Nevada foothills and neighboring ecoregions. We followed the least-cost corridor techniques described by Beier et al. (2007). This analysis identified the least-cost corridor, or the best potential route for each species, between neighboring landscape blocks. The data needed for a least-cost corridor analysis are a resistance raster and landscape blocks. The resistance raster is the inverse of the species distribution model (SDM) output (i.e., Maxent or BioView habitat models, which rank habitat suitability across the landscape from 0-100 for each species). We identified habitat patches for each focal species within each landscape block, and connected those habitat patches using the least-cost corridor models. The least-cost corridor model does not identify barriers, risk and dispersal. We removed urban areas and areas of unsuitable/non-restorable habitat from the corridors and then inspected the corridor to make sure they were continuous. We examined the amount of predicted suitable habitat in each corridor, and measured the distance between habitat patches within each corridor to make sure it was within the maximum dispersal distance for that focal species. If the corridors did not meet these rules then habitat patches on the border of the corridor were added to meet the selection requirements.

i02 NCCAG Wetlands

<span style='font-family:&quot;Avenir Next W01&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next W00&quot;, &quot;Avenir Next&quot;, Avenir, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size:16px;'>The Natural Communities Commonly Associated with Groundwater (NCCAG) dataset is a compilation of phreatophytic vegetation, regularly flooded natural wetlands and riverine areas, and springs and seeps extracted from 48 publicly available state and federal agency datasets. Two habitat classes are included in the dataset: wetland features commonly associated with the surface expression of groundwater under natural, unmodified conditions; and vegetation types commonly associated with the sub-surface presence of groundwater (phreatophytes). The NCCAG dataset began as an amalgamation of vegetation and wetland datasets with different scales, resolutions, attribute details, and classifications. A working group comprised of DWR, California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) and The Nature Conservancy (TNC) further reviewed the vegetation and wetland datasets and conducted a screening process to identify the vegetation and wetland types considered to be commonly associated with groundwater (Klausmeyer et al., 2018). The NCCAG dataset can be used as a starting point to investigate and identify groundwater dependent ecosystems (GDEs) within a groundwater basin. Identifying GDEs requires detailed understanding of the land use, groundwater levels, hydrology, and geology of a location. This comprehensive understanding of geology, hydrology, and biology is not available at the statewide scale. Further investigation and verification of the connection and dependence between groundwater and mapped vegetation and wetlands at a local scale may be needed for water managers in sustainable groundwater management planning.</span>
