Topic	USFS Riparian VegTypes: Lost Man Calwater 1994

 

Caption:  This bar chart shows riparian tree size class of the Lost Man Creek Calwater planning watershed. The Lost Man Creek Calwater had 70 percent of the riparian in medium-large and greater size classes, only 24 percent in small-medium and smaller size classes, and 6 percent in non-forest as of 1994. The U.S. Forest Service derived the information from a 1994 Landsat image. This analysis technique is accurate at the stand rather than individual tree level. Scroll down for a key to classifications. Click on Picture to see an ArcView screen capture of the May Creek Calwater planning watershed showing vegetation types. Vegetation is classified according to diameter at breast height (DBH): Giant = >50" DBH, V Large = 40-50" DBH, Large = 30-40" DBH, Medium/Large = 20-30" DBH, Small/Medium = 12-20" DBH, Small = 5-12" DBH, Non-Forest = No trees, shrubs, grass, bare soil.
