Dataset Identification:

Resource Abstract:
description: The database represents delineations of aspen stands associated with stand assessment data (PLUMAS_NF_FEATHERRIVER_PTS) collected in aspen stands in the Plumas National Forest, Feather River Ranger District (Plumas County); field surveys and assessments were conducted by trained USFS staff. This is the current completed data set for aspen distribution of land administered by this agency. Aspen stands were assessed and delineated using a protocol developed by the lead investigators at the Feather River Ranger District. Data captures location of aspen stands and vegetative characteristics of the aspen stand. Associated with this polygon layer is a point layer (PLUMAS_NF_FEATHERRIVER_PTS) containing aspen stand assessments conducted in conjunction with the aspen stand delineations. 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.; abstract: The database represents delineations of aspen stands associated with stand assessment data (PLUMAS_NF_FEATHERRIVER_PTS) collected in aspen stands in the Plumas National Forest, Feather River Ranger District (Plumas County); field surveys and assessments were conducted by trained USFS staff.
