Serpentine geology in Klamath-Siskiyou study area

Sep 3, 2010 (Last modified Sep 8, 2010)
Dataset was used in a scientifically peer-reviewed publication
Description:
With its extraordinarily high biodiversity and physical heterogeneity, the Klamath-Siskiyou ecoregion warrants and ambitious conservation plan founded on scientifically defensible goals. The region is well-suited to an approach that combines the research and planning tracks of special elements, representation, and focal species. This multi-faceted study is ongoing, with additional focal species studies and socio-economic analyses. This dataset is a result of special elements and representation analyses and of research on one focal species, the Pacific fisher (Martes pennant pacifica). The report "A Science-based Conservation Assessment for the Klamath-Siskiyou Ecoregion" was prepared for the Siskiyou Regional Education Project in May, 1999

These maps are intended for display at the 1:100,000 scale.

Developed from U.S. Geological Survey State Geology Maps and STATSGO soils.
