Water quality, fish, phytoplankton, clams and zooplankton monitoring to support the Summer-Fall Suisun Marsh Salinity Control Gates Action

The Suisun Marsh Salinity Control Gates (SMSCG) have the potential to increase low-salinity-zone habitat for endangered Delta Smelt (Hypomesus transpacificus, California Endangered Species Act listed as Endangered, Federal Endangered Species Act listed as Threatened), and to allow them to more frequently occupy Suisun Marsh, especially Montezuma Slough, one of their most important rearing habitats. Operation of the SMSCG in summer and fall to improve Delta Smelt habitat are called for in the Biological Opinion and Incidental Take permit for the Central Valley Project and State Water Project. To support the adaptive management of the action, the California Department of Water Resources monitored the change in water quality, phytoplankton, zooplankton, fishes, and clams resulting from the action in 2018. This data package includes data collected by the Interagency Ecological Program’s (IEP) long-term monitoring programs supplemented with targeted sample collection where existing surveys lack spatial or temporal coverage. This package also includes modeling the change in Delta Smelt habitat based on area of open water with appropriate temperature, salinity, and turbidity. Monitoring during no-action years (2019 and 2020) will be used as a baseline for comparison during action years. This data package will be updated annually during both action years and non-action years.

California Least Tern Monitoring Sites by Region - CDFW [ds3147]

California least tern colonies are monitored during nesting season along the California Coast and data is reported to California Department of Fish and Wildlife. 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 - 2019. Its 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. Annual reports 2017 and earlier can also be found by searching in California Department of Fish and Wildlifes document library (nrm.dfg.ca.gov/documents/docViewer.aspx).A version of this data, monitoring sites generalized to a 2.5 square mile hexagon, has been made available in BIOS as California Least Tern Monitoring Sites Generalized - CDFW [ds3146].

Energy generation data and map are from the California Energy Commission for all power plants that have a nameplate capacity of 1MW or more. Small hydroelectric plants are designated as a renewable energy source if their nameplate capacity is more than 30MW, it is classified as a large hydroelectric plant. Counties without symbols either did not report data or had no utility-scale hydroelectric power generation. Data is from 2022 and is current as of July 10, 2023.

Upper Mattole River Regional Cannabis Pilot Project - Hydrology, Dissolved Oxygen, and Temperature

Data collected includes pressure and temperature readings logged by a pressure tranducer. The pressure data is converted to stage data. Stream low data is collected to develop a stage-discarge rating curve. This rating curve is then used to estimate flow from. Dissvoled oxygen is collected from loggers. Flow, termperature and dissolved xoygen are realted to habitat requiremetns of threatened and endangered salmonids.

Mule Deer Migration Corridors, Pacific Herd - 2015-2020 [ds3142]

The project leads for the collection of these data were Shelly Blair (CDFW) and Jerrod Merrell (University of Nevada Reno). Mule deer (52 adult females) from the Pacific herd were captured and equipped with store-onboard GPS collars (Vectronic Plus Vertex Survey Iridium), transmitting data from 2015-2020. Pacific mule deer are found on the western slope of the Sierra Nevada in eastern California and exhibit largely traditional seasonal migration strategies. This population migrates from a multitude of lower elevation areas in the foothills of El Dorado National Forest in winter westward into higher elevation summer ranges. Migrants vary in their movements from shorter (6 km) to longer (41 km) distances.GPS locations were fixed between 1-13 hour intervals in the dataset. To improve the quality of the dataset, the GPS data were filtered prior to analysis to remove locations which were fixed in 2D space and visually assessed as a bad fix by the analyst.The methodology used for this migration analysis allowed for the mapping of winter ranges and the identification and prioritization of migration corridors. Brownian Bridge Movement Models (BBMMs; Sawyer et al. 2009) were constructed with GPS collar data from 43 migrating deer, including 149 migration sequences, location, date, time, and average location error as inputs in Migration Mapper. The average migration time and average migration distance for deer was 7.79 days and 26.72 km, respectively. Corridors and stopovers were prioritized based on the number of animals moving through a particular area. Corridors and stopovers were best visualized using a fixed motion variance of 500 per sequence. Winter range was processed with a fixed motion variance of 1000. All products were produced at a spatial resolution of 50 m using a sequential fix interval of less than 27 hours. Winter range analyses were based on data from 32 individual deer and 54 wintering sequences. Winter range designations for this herd may expand with a la

Gull-billed Tern Range - CWHR B226 [ds976]

Vector datasets of CWHR range maps are one component of California Wildlife Habitat Relationships (CWHR), a comprehensive information system and predictive model for Californias wildlife. The CWHR System was developed to support habitat conservation and management, land use planning, impact assessment, education, and research involving terrestrial vertebrates in California. CWHR contains information on life history, management status, geographic distribution, and habitat relationships for wildlife species known to occur regularly in California. Range maps represent the maximum, current geographic extent of each species within California. They were originally delineated at a scale of 1:5,000,000 by species-level experts and have gradually been revised at a scale of 1:1,000,000. For more information about CWHR, visit the CWHR webpage (https://www.wildlife.ca.gov/Data/CWHR). The webpage provides links to download CWHR data and user documents such as a look up table of available range maps including species code, species name, and range map revision history; a full set of CWHR GIS data; .pdf files of each range map or species life history accounts; and a User Guide.
