Peregrine Falcon Observations Generalized [ds2968] Extended Table

The Peregrine Falcon Observations Database is a product of the California Department of Fish and Wildlifes (CDFWs) Wildlife Branch and Biogeographic Data Branch. It was created by the Santa Cruz Predatory Bird Research Group (https://pbrg.pbsci.ucsc.edu/) then managed privately for a time. CDFW took ownership in 2011. The records generally represent peregrine falcons (PEFA, Falco peregrinus) nesting, perching, and flying. Additional information about the falcon, the database, and submitting data can be found on CDFW''s American Peregrine Falcons in California Webpage: https://www.wildlife.ca.gov/Conservation/Birds/Peregrine-Falcon.This dataset represents observed nest locations for peregrine falcons, generalized to a USGS 7.5 minute topographic quad level. If you need more specific location information, please contact the listed point of contact in the metadata.
NASA JPL InSAR Subsidence Data (Superseded)

### This dataset has been superseded by https://data.cnra.ca.gov/dataset/tre-altamira-insar-subsidence
  
This dataset represents measurements of vertical ground surface displacement in Bulletin 118 groundwater basins between spring of 2015 and summer of 2017. Image resolution is 0.0008333 degrees, or approximately 92 meters in north-south direction, and 70-77 meters in east-west direction (low end of range applies to northern latitudes and higher end of range applies to lower latitudes). Vertical ground surface displacement rates are derived from Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) data that are collected by the European Space Agency (ESA) Sentinel-1A satellite and processed by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), under contract with to the California Department of Water Resources (DWR). JPL presented preliminary processing results in the Progress Report: Subsidence in California, March 2015 – September 2016, and submitted a later version of the processing results that are still preliminary to the California Department of Water Resources (DWR). These files provided by JPL to DWR are multiband floating point GeoTIFFs with each band representing a date. GeoTIFF pixel values are in inches equal to the cumulative vertical displacement from the first date. JPL processed Sentinel-1A InSAR data separately for three different geographic regions; The Sacramento Valley, the San Joaquin Valley, and the South Central Coast. DWR temporarily interpolated the JPL data to end-of-month values, merged the resulting rasters from all three regions into a single raster for each month, and clipped all rasters to Bulletin 118 groundwater basins. DWR derived rasters for total vertical displacement relative to May 31, 2015, as well as rasters for annual vertical displacement rates, both in monthly time steps.
Data are considered public domain. DWR makes no warranties or guarantees — either expressed or implied — as to the completeness, accuracy, or correctness of the data. DWR neither accepts nor assumes liability arising from or for any incorrect, incomplete, or misleading subject data.
This is an official DWR Image Service, published on 2/9/2018 by Ben Brezing of the DWR Division of Statewide Integrated Water Management, who may be contacted at Benjamin.brezing@water.ca.gov or (916) 651-9291.

Fisheries Restoration Grant Program (FRGP) Projects [ds168] Extended Table

The Fisheries Restoration Grant Program (FRGP) was established in 1981 in response to rapidly declining populations of wild salmon and steelhead trout and deteriorating fish habitat in California. This competitive grant program has invested millions of dollars to support projects from sediment reduction to watershed education throughout coastal California. Contributing partners include federal and local governments, tribes, water districts, fisheries organizations, watershed restoration groups, the California Conservation Corps, AmeriCorps, and private landowners.The FRGP Database began in 1999 to capture and maintain data about habitat restoration projects in California benefiting anadromous fish. The database is managed California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) and funded by NOAA Fisheries and CDFW. Project locations are digitized in as much detail as possible based on the grantees maps. Where possible, the shapefile displays the individual project sites of restoration projects in the Fisheries Restoration Grant Program Database as of May each year. For more information about FRGP grants, see https://wildlife.ca.gov/Grants/FRGP/Grant-Process.This point data set provides location data for the database. The detailed grant information is in the associated "Project Data" table. They can be joined on the "Project_ID" field. There may be more than one worksite per project. Some projects did not provide individual lat/long for worksites. In those cases, the project worksite location was used for the worksites.

California's Groundwater Basin Boundary Descriptions

In conjunction with the release of [California’s Groundwater Update 2020](https://data.cnra.ca.gov/dataset/caglw_update2020), DWR has compiled a comprehensive list of the official basin boundary descriptions for all of California’s 515 groundwater basins. These descriptions were originally developed by DWR as part of California’s Groundwater (B-118) Update 2003 and have since been updated for some groundwater basins  as a result of the 2016 and 2018 [Basin Boundary Modifications](https://water.ca.gov/Programs/Groundwater-Management/Basin-Boundary-Modifications). To make locating descriptions easier, they have been organized by region which is determined by the first number of the basin number (i.e. 1-XXX). 

The original basin descriptions developed for California’s Groundwater (B-118) Update 2003 also included summaries of the hydrologic and hydrogeologic setting, groundwater storage capacity and water budget, groundwater level and quality trends, well yields, basin management, and references. This additional information contained in the basin descriptions will now be referred to as “basin reports” and are still available [online](https://data.cnra.ca.gov/dataset/bulletin-118-update-2003-basin-reports) as part of the [Bulletin 118 -  Update 2003](https://data.cnra.ca.gov/dataset/california-s-groundwater-bulletin-118-archive/resource/5fc7e39c-34e7-433e-9dbe-ff93ce76787f) report.
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>
