California (USA) Redwoods Region Composite Conservation Model Score by Watershed

This dataset represents the composite score of watersheds for redwood conservation across multiple criteria compiled by the Conservation Biology Institute for the report "A GIS-based model for assessing conservation focal areas for the redwood ecosystem." Underlying criteria include late successional patch size, concentration of late successional patches, road density, location of imperiled species, forest neighborhood age, forest fragmentation, potential connectivity to existing protected areas, road/stream intersections, and forested riparian zones. For more details, see the full report at http://consbio.org/products/reports/a-gis-based-model-for-assessing-conservation-focal-areas-for-the-redwood-ecoregion. This dataset corresponds to the Composite Model Ranking By Watershed Using Criteria Two Through Nine (presented in figures 34, 37, 40).
