Topic Land Cover: USFS Veg Size in Riparian for East of Eureka Hill 1994
 
Caption:  This bar chart shows vegetation size classes in the riparian zone of the East of Eureka Hill Calwater Planning Watershed. The riparian zone encompasses a distance of 90 meters (300 feet) on either side of the stream channel. This planning watershed had 32% of the riparian in medium-large and greater trees, 54% in small-medium and smaller trees and 14% in non-forest, which reflects recent logging. The information was derived from a 1994 Landsat image by the U.S. Forest Service. This analysis technique calculates averages of vegetation stands at a one-hectare scale, and therefore is accurate at the stand rather than individual tree level. Click on InfoLinks for more information. Click on Map to see these data in spatial form. 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.
