Dataset Identification:
Resource Abstract:
- description: The database represents point locations and associated stand assessment data collected in aspen stands in the
in the Eagle Lake Ranger District, Lassen National Forest, Lassen County, California. Data were gathered during the summers
of 2001-2005. Observations were conducted by trained Forest Service crews. Assessments were conducted within aspen stands
in the region, or stands identified during field surveys. This dataset is considered to be a complete inventory of aspen in
these watersheds, based on the extensive effort to survey all stands in the region. Aspen stands were assessed and delineated
using a protocol developed by the lead investigators at the Eagle Lake Ranger District. Assessments included information describing
the ecological condition of the aspen stand, and if browsing of the aspen was present or absent. Associated with this point
layer is a polygon layer (LASSEN_NF_EAGLELAKE_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 Californ; abstract:
