This is a map of change in vegetation in the North Fork Battle sub-basin for the periods 1991-1996 and 1994-1999, displayed with KRIS sub-basins and 1:100,000 scale
streams. Vegetation change was calculated based on Landsat satellite images. Canopy loss (red and orange) represent vegetation decreases due to recent disturbance
such as timber harvesting or fire. Green on the map represents an increase in canopy, indicating re-growth from previous timber harvesting or fire. The false Non-Veg
Change at the top of Mt Lassen was likely due to a decreased snow pack between scenes. Data were provided by the U.S. Forest Service Pacific Southwest Region
Remote Sensing Lab, in cooperation with the California Department of Forestry.
