Data

The Species Richness Maps included here are based on the Gap Analysis Project (GAP) habitat maps, which are predictions of the spatial distribution of suitable environmental and land cover conditions within the United States for individual species. Individual species habitat distribution models were summed to create the total richness for each vertebrate taxa. The summing process was...

This CSV file contains landscape factors representing anthropogenic disturbances to stream habitats summarized within local and network stream catchments of Southeast Alaska. The source datasets compiled and attributed to spatial units were identified as being: (1) meaningful for assessing fluvial fish habitat; (2) consistent across the entire study area in the way that they were...

The Mojave Plots Points data are 1,219 plot locations in the Central Mojave Desert where field data were recorded and photographs were taken from 1997-1999 to provide context for the classification of the Central Mojave Desert into various vegetation classes. The 1,219 plot locations in the plots points shapefile (plots_points.shp) are each assigned a unique identifier called the...

The USGS Protected Areas Database of the United States (PAD-US) is the nation's inventory of protected areas, including public open space and voluntarily provided, private protected areas, identified as an A-16 National Geospatial Data Asset in the Cadastral Theme (https://communities.geoplatform.gov/ngda-cadastre/). PAD-US is an ongoing project with several published versions of a...

This dataset represents a species known range extent for Leptotyphlops dulcis (Texas Threadsnake). These range maps are created by attributing sub-watershed polygons with information of a species presence, origin, seasonal and reproductive use.

The ecotone (i.e., edge) between forested and non-forested environments can be a critical aspect of habitat. We grouped land cover types - ecological systems, human land use, and water - (subsequently referred to as map units) into forested, non-forested, and shrubland/woodland land cover types to create unique data layers. These data layers can then be buffered at specified distances to...

This dataset represents a species known range extent for Chaetodipus fallax (San Diego Pocket Mouse). These range maps are created by attributing sub-watershed polygons with information of a species presence, origin, seasonal and reproductive use.

This dataset represents a species known range extent for Canis lupus baileyi (Mexican Wolf). These range maps are created by attributing sub-watershed polygons with information of a species presence, origin, seasonal and reproductive use.

This dataset represents a species known range extent for Smilisca fodiens (Lowland Burrowing Treefrog). These range maps are created by attributing sub-watershed polygons with information of a species presence, origin, seasonal and reproductive use.

This dataset represents a species habitat distribution model for Arroyo Toad. These habitat maps are created by applying a deductive habitat model to remotely-sensed data layers within a species' range.

This dataset represents a species habitat distribution model for San Simeon Slender Salamander. These habitat maps are created by applying a deductive habitat model to remotely-sensed data layers within a species' range.

This dataset represents a species known range extent for Nyctidromus albicollis (Common Pauraque). These range maps are created by attributing sub-watershed polygons with information of a species presence, origin, seasonal and reproductive use.
