Seedlings and Saplings - Spears and Didion Ranches [ds318]

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>These data are the total number and average number of saplings and seedlings of trees detected from 0.05-ha circular plot habitat samples taken in 2005 at sample points at Spears and Didion Ranches, Placer County, California. Seedlings and saplings were counted from nine 1-square meter (0.56-m radius) circular plots located within each 0.05-ha circular habitat sampling plot. There were three 0.05-ha circular habitat sampling plots at each of the 15 sample points. One 1-square meter plot was located at the center of 0.05-ha plot, and the eight remaining plots were located 8 m away from the center point at 45 degree intervals in the circular.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
Vegetation Cover - Spears and Didion Ranches [ds319] Extended Table

These data are the summary statistics calculated for components of the herbaceous layers, and shrubs and trees from the three 0.05-ha circular plot habitat samples each taken in 2005 at the 15 sample points at Spears and Didion Ranches, Placer County, California. These values are based on point intersections of live vegetation with a sighting tube at 25 points on eight 12.6 m transects through the 0.05-ha plot. Readings were taken in the center of each habitat sampling plot and at 4 m, 8 m, and 12 m on each of the eight transects within the plot. The transects are at 45 degree increments with one transect to the north. The herb layer is vegetation 0.5-2.0 m tall, while the tree layer vegetation is &gt; 2.0 m tall.

SGMA Climate Change Resources

This dataset includes processed climate change datasets related to climatology, hydrology, and water operations. The climatological data provided are change factors for precipitation and reference evapotranspiration gridded over the entire State. The hydrological data provided are projected stream inflows for major streams in the Central Valley, and streamflow change factors for areas outside of the Central Valley and smaller ungaged watersheds within the Central Valley. The water operations data provided are Central Valley reservoir outflows, diversions, and State Water Project (SWP) and Central Valley Project (CVP) water deliveries and select streamflow data. Most of the Central Valley inflows and all of the water operations data were simulated using the CalSim II model and produced for all projections.

These data were originally developed for the California Water Commission’s Water Storage Investment Program (WSIP). The WSIP data used as the basis for these climate change resources along with the technical reference document are located here: https://data.cnra.ca.gov/dataset/climate-change-projections-wsip-2030-2070. Additional processing steps were performed to improve user experience, ease of use for GSP development, and for Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA) implementation. Furthermore, the data, tools, and guidance may be useful for purposes other than sustainable groundwater management under SGMA.

Data are provided for projected climate conditions centered around 2030 and 2070. The climate projections are provided for these two future climate periods, and include one scenario for 2030 and three scenarios for 2070: a 2030 central tendency, a 2070 central tendency, and two 2070 extreme scenarios (i.e., one drier with extreme warming and one wetter with moderate warming). The climate scenario development process represents a climate period analysis where historical interannual variability from January 1915 through December 2011 is preserved while the magnitude of events may be increased or decreased based on projected changes in precipitation and air temperature from general circulation models.

## 2070 Extreme Scenarios Update, September 2020

DWR has collaborated with Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory to improve the quality of the 2070 extreme scenarios. The 2070 extreme scenario update utilizes an improved climate period analysis method known as "quantile delta mapping" to better capture the GCM-projected change in temperature and precipitation. A technical note on the background and results of this process is provided here: https://data.cnra.ca.gov/dataset/extreme-climate-change-scenarios-for-water-supply-planning/resource/f2e1c61a-4946-4863-825f-e6d516b433ed.

Operational Division Boundaries - OSPR [ds355]

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The shoreline operational divisions are organized and named according to County boundaries. Within county domains, divisions are boundaries guided by logical geopolitical features such as coastal physical characteristics and land ownership/ management issues, shoreline cleanup logistical considerations, and manageable sized coastline segments (generally not longer than about ten miles although some variation occurs.) Logistics, access, and manageability were driving considerations in this effort, particularly as it relates to types of cleanup operations required and problems likely to be present.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
Sensitive Sites - OSPR [ds358]

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The data was created by reviewing the information contained in the Site Summaries. If the Site Summary contained a latitude/longitude of the location, the ArcView Geotools extension was used to create the point shp file. If the coordinate was not know, the tool was used to identify the coordinate by selecting the location from a georeferenced USGS quad map. The extents were identified from the Site Summary and each extents was copied from the 24K Coast shp file or from the Delta Shp file. The Xtools extension was used to cut and copy each segment to the extents shp file.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>
Aspen Characteristics - Aspen Delineation Project [ds361]

This is a multi-agency contributed dataset gathered by the agencies listed above during the summers of 2001-2005. Assessment data and GIS delineations were collected using a standardized protocol developed by members of the Aspen Delineation Project, a cooperative project of the US Forest Service, the Bureau of Land Management and the California Department of Fish and Game. Surveying was completed by foot surveys of watersheds surveyed. This is the current completed data set for aspen distribution of land administered by these agencies. Data captures location of aspen stands and vegetative characteristics of the aspen stand, and if browsing of the aspen was present or absent. Also associated with this database is a polygon layer (ADP_POLY) containing aspen stands delineated in conjunction with the aspen assessment information. Data Compilation: The Aspen Delineation Project (ADP) is a collaborative effort of the U.S. Forest Service's Pacific Southwest Region, the California Department of Fish and Games Resource Assessment Program, and the California Office of Bureau of Land Management. Principal Investigator for ADP is David Burton; visit: www.aspensite.org for more information regarding the ADP. The Department of Fish and Games, Resource Assessment Program compiled this information from the collaborating agencies and other researchers, and formatted the data into a common database for the purpose of facilitating access to data related to the conservation of Quaking Aspen in California. This information portal falls within the ADP goals to help agencies and land managers identify, map, treat, and monitor aspen habitats.

These regional centers are responsible for evaluating individuals, determining their eligibility for services, and providing case management. The Regional Center Catchment Areas were developed to capture the extent of services associated with a regional center. This data, when added to the DDS Regional Center Lookup helps current and future consumers of the DDS Regional Center services in determining which Regional Center to contact according to their location within an associated catchment (service) area. When an address is entered into the Regional Center Lookup application, a zonal search of the catchment area and the address location returns the appropriate Regional Center name and a link with contact information. </span></span><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.dds.ca.gov/rc/lookup-rcs-by-county/">Regional Center Lookup : CA Department of Developmental Services</a></p>
