Area S Marin/Redwood Creek
Topic Land Cover: USFS Veg Size in S. Marin Coast Riparian Zones 1994
 
Caption:  This chart shows vegetation size classes in 90-m riparian buffers in the S. Marin/Redwood Creek sub-basin, derived from a 1994 Landsat image by the U.S. Forest Service. Forested areas are dominated by small/medium trees. Rodeo Lagoon is 100% non-forest. The vegetation classification is accurate at a one-hectare scale and is suitable for stand classification. Vegetation is classified according to diameter at breast height (DBH): Very Large = 40-50" DBH, Large = 30-39.9" DBH, Medium/Large = 20-29.9" DBH, Small/Medium = 12-19.9" DBH, Small = 5-11.9" DBH, Saplings = 1-4.9" DBH, Non-Forest = No trees, shrubs, grass, bare soil.
