CIMIS Weather Station & Spatial CIMIS Data - Web API

CIMIS data is available to the public free of charge via a web Application Programming Interface (API).  The CIMIS Web API delivers data over the REST protocol from an enterprise production platform. The system provides reference evapotranspiration (ETo) and weather data from the CIMIS Weather Station Network and the Spatial CIMIS System. Spatial CIMIS provides daily maps of ETo and solar radiation (Rs) data at 2-km grid by coupling remotely sensed satellite data with point measurements from the CIMIS weather stations. In summary, the data provided through the CIMIS Web API is comprised by a)  Weather and ETo data registered at the CIMIS Weather Station Network (more than 150 stations located throughout the state of California and b) Spatial CIMIS System data that provides statewide ETo and solar radiation (Rs) data as well as aeraged ETo by zip-codes.  The RESTful HTTP services reach a broader range of clients; including Wi-Fi aware irrigation smart controllers as well as browser and mobile applications, all while expanding the delivery options by providing data in either JSON or XML formats.

Elk Migration Lines - West Goose Lake - 1999-2002, 2018-2020 [ds2900]

<div style='text-align:Left;'><div><div><p style='margin:0 0 11 0;'><span><span>The project leads for the collection of this data were Erin Zulliger and Richard Shinn. The winter range of the West Goose Lake Rocky Mountain elk (</span></span><span style='font-style:italic;'><span>Cervus canadensis nelsoni</span></span><span><span>) sub-herd is located north of Alturas and west of Highway 395 within the Devil’s Garden Ranger District of the Modoc National Forest. This area is characterized by juniper (</span></span><span style='font-style:italic;'><span>Juniperus occidentalis</span></span><span><span>) woodlands, and sagebrush flats with some stands of lodgepole (</span></span><span style='font-style:italic;'><span>Pinus contorta</span></span><span><span>) and ponderosa pine (</span></span><span style='font-style:italic;'><span>Pinus ponderosa</span></span><span><span>) throughout flat, rocky terrain. From this area, a portion of the herd migrates approximately 50 miles north into Oregon’s Fremont National Forest, habitat that primarily consists of lodgepole and ponderosa pine forests. Minimal barriers exist along this migration route since the corridor primarily occurs on land managed by the US Forest Service. Additionally, although the core migration route does cross Highway 140, little to no impacts are known to exist from this crossing. Elk (12 adult females, 1 adult male, and 3 juvenile males) were captured from 2018 to February 2020 and equipped with Lotek and Vectronic satellite GPS collars. Additional GPS data was collected from elk (2 females and 1 male) in 1999-2002 and included in the analysis to supplement the small sample size of the 2018-2020 dataset. GPS locations were fixed at 4-hour intervals in the 2018-2020 dataset and 6 to 8-hour intervals in the 1999-2002 dataset. </span></span></p><p style='margin:0 0 11 0;'><span><span>Migration lines as symbolized connect GPS data points per elk per seasonal migration. GPS points were extracted only during migrations using net-squared displacement graphs. Five migration sequences from 3 elk, with an average migration time of 6.8 days and an average migration distance of 16.14 km, were used from the 1999-2002 dataset. All three of these elk were used to supplement the eastern members of this herd, which travel shorter distances between summer and winter range than western individuals in the sample. Twenty migration sequences from 9 elk, with an average migration time of 11.2 days and an average migration distance of 57.75 km, were used from the 2018-2020 dataset.</span></span></p></div></div></div>

2021-2022 West False River Emergency Drought Barrier water quality, flow, and fish monitoring

To manage the critically low 2021 water supply for beneficial uses, DWR installed the temporary emergency drought barrier (EDB) on West False River in the Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta (Delta), approximately 5 miles south of Rio Vista, California, in Contra Costa County in June 2021. To monitor the effectiveness and impacts of the EBD, a monitoring program was initiated to track changes in hydrodynamics, water quality, fish, harmful algal blooms, and aquatic weeds in the vicinity of the EDB. This data set includes all data collected as part of that monitoring program and subsets of ongoing monitoring programs that were used in the 2021 effectiveness report for the EDB.

ACE addresses both terrestrial and aquatic data. The ACE model combines and analyzes terrestrial information in a 2.5 square mile hexagon grid and aquatic information at the HUC12 watershed level across the state to produce a series of maps for use in non-regulatory evaluation of conservation priorities in California. The model addresses as many of CDFWs statewide conservation and recreational mandates as feasible using high quality data sources. High value areas statewide and in each USDA Ecoregion were identified. The ACE maps and data can be viewed in the ACE online map viewer, or downloaded for use in ArcGIS.

The colonies in this dataset range from the Tijuana river mouth near the Mexico border to Sacramento. Locations and data include both present and historic sites. Locations are approximate and can have variation over time. These approximate locations were overlaid with a statewide hexagon layer (ds675) and then a buffer was created in order to mask exact nesting locations. These were then combined and broken into 4 main regions: S.F. Bay, Central, Ventura, and Southern. Two additional polygons are separated for the inland sites Kings and Sacramento. Some additional sites without location information can be found in the related table. The related table includes nesting totals by year from 1990 - 2023. It's anticipated to update this dataset to include earlier and newer records. Monitoring data includes estimated fledglings, estimated breeding pairs, total number of nests, and predator information when included in site reports.

Energy Equity Indicators – Interactive Story Map

These interactive energy equity indicators are designed to help identify opportunities to improve access to clean energy technologies for low-income customers and disadvantaged communities; increase clean energy investment in those communities; and improve community resilience to grid outages and extreme events. A summary report of these indicators will be updated each year to track progress on implementation of the recommendations put forth by the Energy Commission’s December 2016 Low-Income Barriers Study mandated by Senate Bill 350 (de León, Chapter547, Statutes of 2015), and monitor performance of state-administered clean energy programs in low-income and disadvantaged communities across the state.<div><br /><div><div>Selected energy equity indicators are highlighted on the following California map. The base map highlights areas with median household income of $37,000 or less (60 percent of statewide median income for 2011-2015) and disadvantaged communities eligible for greenhouse gas reduction fund programs. The map also identifies tribal areas. Click to view data for low-income areas with low energy efficiency investments, low solar capacity per capita, or low clean vehicle rebate incentive investments. Additional data layers include high-density low-income areas and low-income areas that have many older buildings, as well as counties with high levels of asthma-related emergency room visit. This information can help identify opportunities for improving clean energy access, investment, and resilience in low-income and disadvantaged communities in California. Additional indicators are available by clicking on the Story Map or Tracking Progress Report links provided above.</div></div></div>
