Aspen Characteristics - Klamath National Forest EUI [ds367]

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The database represents point locations and associated stand assessment data collected within aspen stands in the Klamath National Forest, Siskiyou County, California. The Ecological Unit Inventory is a data set compiled by the Klamath National Forest between 1991 and 1999. Aspen stands were interpreted using USGS 1m resolution grey scale aerial photography (DOQQ's) captured during the summer of 1993. The associated polygon layer (KLAMATH_NF_EUI_POLY) was digitized on a computer screen using the aerial photography to identify stand boundaries. The stands were evaluated based on criteria that included seral stage, tree size, primary and secondary dominant trees species, and vegetation category type. Associated with this point layer is a polygon layer (KLAMATH_NF_EUI_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. This dataset is a portion of a master database compiled during a year long effort in 2005 to pull together current GIS layers and maps depicting Aspen communities in California.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>

Aspen Delineation - Inyo National Forest [ds366]

The database represents delineations of known aspen stands where aspen assessments were collected in the Inyo National Forest, Inyo County, California. The Inyo National Forest assessed aspen as a part of the Terrestrial Ecological Unit Inventory (TEUI). This data were gathered during the summers of 2005. The purpose of the TEUIs is to identify ecological map units and ecological types and interpretations for ecosystem management and planning. The aspen are within the Potential Natural Vegetation (PNV) layer, which is a base layer of the TEUIs. Delineations of aspen stands were based on dominant vegetation types from aerial imagery and field verification. Potential Natural Vegetation (PNV) coverage for all lands within the Inyo National Forest, including Sierra and Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest lands administered by the Inyo NF without regard to land ownership. The coverage does not include large blocks of private, state, county, Dept. of LA Water and Power, or other federal lands such as Long Valley, or the Owens Valley. Associated with this polygon layer is a point layer (INYO_NF_PTS) containing aspen stand assessments conducted in conjunction with the aspen stand delineations.

Aspen Delineation - El Dorado National Forest [ds364]

The database represents delineations of known aspen stands, where aspen assessments were gathered in the Eldorado National Forest, Eldorado and Amador Counties, California. Aspen assessment information corresponding to this polygon layer can be found in the layer: ELDORADO_NF_POLY. Data was gathered during the summers of 1999-2001. Assessments were conducted primarily by volunteers for the USDA Forest Service. Assessments were conducted within known aspen stands in the region, or stands identified during field surveys. The survey method was not intended to capture all known aspen sites in this region, and so this data does not represent a comprehensive map of aspen stands in the region. Aspen stands were assessed using a protocol developed by the Eldorado National Forest. Basic Information gathered included location and vegetative characteristics, and if browsing of the aspen was present or absent. Associated with this polygon layer is a point layer (ELDORADO_NF_PTS) containing aspen stand assessments conducted in conjunction with the aspen stand delineations.

<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>

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>

These data are detections of reptiles in 2006 under 2 ft x 2 ft dimension plywood coverboards at four of the 15 sample points at Spears and Didion Ranches, Placer County, California. There are 81 coverboards in a 9 board by 9 board array (on 15 m spacing) centered on the sample points. Coverboards were placed in oak woodland and annual grassland habitat in November-December 2006 and checked on a bi-weekly basis between March-July 2006. All 204 animals found under the coverboards were counted, identified to species, and aged and sexed.
