Abstract:
-
Willamette River Basin wildlife habitat as defined by biologists for the
279 non fish vertebrate species evaluated in the wildlife models. The PreEuroAmerican
version derived from the PNW-ERC PreEuroAmerican land cover dataset. That
data layer was developed from a composite of three historical datasets:
the 1850's General Land Office survey as compiled by the Nature Conservancy,
a digital version of the 1936 Oregon Forest Type Map as drawn by H. J.
Andrews, and the Oregon Actual Vegetation map from the Oregon Natural Heritage
Program. Forest condition was also adjusted in sites of known fires between
1850 and 1936. This classification was then reclassified into the PNWERC
landcover types. For a fuller description of the procedures and datasets,
see the documentation for the PESVEG scenario.
-
Purpose:
-
The dataset provides a spatial framework for modeling wildlife diversity
and population change within and across the five Alternative Scenarios.
-
Supplemental_Information:
-
See the documentation in the file ara.final.report.doc (www/oregonstate.edu/dept/pnw-erc)
for complete crosswalks of habitat assignments and descriptions.
