Elk Home Range - South Warners - 2018-2023 [ds3171]

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The project lead for the collection of this data was Erin Zulliger. Elk (5 adult females) were captured and equipped with GPS collars (Litetrack/Pinpoint Iridium collars, Lotek Wireless Inc., Newmarket, Ontario, Canada or Vectronic Aerospace) transmitting data from 2018-2023. The Scott Valley herd does not migrate between traditional summer and winter seasonal ranges. Therefore, annual home ranges were modeled using year-round data to demarcate high use areas in lieu of modeling the specific winter ranges commonly seen in other ungulate analyses in California. GPS locations were fixed at 1-6 hour intervals in the dataset. To improve the quality of the data set, the GPS data locations fixed in 2D space and visually assessed as a bad fix by the analyst were removed.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>The methodology used for this migration analysis allowed for the mapping of the herd's annual range. Brownian bridge movement models (BBMMs; Sawyer et al. 2009) were constructed with GPS collar data from 5 elk, including 20 annual home range sequences, location, date, time, and average location error as inputs in Migration Mapper. BBMMs were produced at a spatial resolution of 50 m using a sequential fix interval of less than 27 hours. Home range is visualized as the 50th percentile contour (high use) and the 99th percentile contour of the year-round utilization distribution. Annual home range designations for this herd may expand with a larger sample.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV>

Tree Characteristics - Spears and Didion Ranches [ds320]

These data are the characteristics of the individual live trees found in 0.05-ha circular plot habitat samples taken in 2005 at sample points at Spears and Didion Ranches, Placer County, California. There were three 0.05-ha circular habitat sampling plots at each of the 15 sample points. To be counted, trees had to be &gt; 4" dbh and within the 12.6 m radius plot. If a plot number is missing, then there were no trees at the sample points and vegetation plots.

Cowcod Conservation Areas - R7 - CDFW [ds3165]

This dataset is for the archival purpose of demonstrating the extent of the Cowcod Conservation Areas. In 2001, access to the continental shelf in the Southern California Bight was restricted by the implementation of the Cowcod Conservation Areas (CCAs) that prohibit most bottom fishing. The closed area includes a 4,200 square mile area (Area 1, or Western CCA) off the Palos Verdes Peninsula extending southwards about 90 miles and westward another 50 miles. A smaller area, the "43-fathom spot" (Area 2, or Eastern CCA), which lies 40 miles offshore of San Diego and extends northward and offshore to cover 100 square miles, was also designated a part of the closure area. Starting in 2024, CCA restrictions no longer apply to non-trawl commercial and recreational vessels fishing for groundfish. Attributes Area: ID for each CCA. Name: Informal Description of each area.

Twenty Fathom Groundfish Boundary Points - R7 - CDFW [ds3161]

This feature depicts the 20-fathom boundary waypointsthat can be used in California groundfish regulations. The 20-fathom boundary line is a connection of a series of GPS coordinates published in California regulations (California Code of Regulations Title 14, Section 35.00) that are intended to approximate underwater depth contours. This boundary, as well as the federal Rockfish Conservation Areas, are used in recreational and commercial groundfish regulations to avoid interactions with certain groundfish species of concern. For both the recreational and commercial fisheries, boundary lines may change during the year, between seasons and management area. Attributes:id_area: unique identifying number for a particular coordinate within a particular line.area_name: identifying name for a particular line at a particular depth contour, primarily distinguishes between coastwide lines and lines around islands.lat_dd: Decimal degree latitude of the waypoint.lon_dd: Decimal degree longitude of the waypoint.lat_ddm: Decimal degree minute latitude of the waypoint.lon_ddm: Decimal degree minute longitude of the waypoint.region: Groundfish Management Zone that the waypoint is in.

Vegetation Survey Points - CDFW [ds1020]

Vegetation surveys included in this dataset have been collected through various vegetation classification and mapping projects, and some were also collected independently from these kinds of projects. Reports for these projects can be found in CDFWs document library see https://nrm.dfg.ca.gov/documents/ContextDocs.aspx?cat=VegCAMP. Links to specific projects are provided with project descriptions below. The surveys are of various types, but many follow the rapid assessment/releve protocol which can be seen here: https://wildlife.ca.gov/Data/VegCAMP/Publications-and-ProtocolsThere are associated disturbance and other environmental data taken for many of these surveys that are not included in this dataset. There are also associated photos. These are available upon request.

Fish Salvage in State Water Project and Central Valley Project - California

Two fish protective facilities reduce fish losses associated with water export by the federal Central Valley Project (CVP) and California’s State Water Project (SWP). The CVP’s Tracy Fish Collection Facility (TFCF) and the SWP’s Skinner Delta Fish Protective Facility (SDFPF) salvage fish (fish are removed from exported water and released back to the Delta) from water exported from the southern end of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta located in Byron, California. Both facilities use louver-bypass systems to divert fish from the exported water. The salvaged fish are periodically loaded into tanker trucks and transported to fixed release sites in the western Delta. Export and salvage operations began in 1957 at the TFCF and in 1968 at the SDFPF.

This data and metadata were submitted by California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) Staff though the Data Management Plan (DMP) framework with the id: DMP000582. For more information, please visit https://wildlife.ca.gov/Data/Sci-Data.

Three Nautical Mile State Maritime Limit - R7 - CDFW [ds3158]

This line was generated from NOAAs 3 nautical mile offshore maritime limit line clipped to California state waters. NOAAs Office of Coast Survey (OCS) has been responsible for generating the 3 Nautical Mile Line used as the state water maritime limit used on official paper charts and raster navigational charts (RNC).This line is primarily used for cartographic purposes. A polygon version of this feature will be downloaded in tandem with the line and is recommended for any area calculations or analysis. The approximate mean high tide line was generated through study region delineation conducted during the planning phase of implementing the Marine Life Protection Act. Attributes:LIMIT: Name of the maritime limit. STATE: State of maritime limit depicted. SRCSCALE: Map scales used to generate limit. SRCDATUM: Datum used to generate limit.
