Land Ownership and Management: Russian River Basin, California, 1970-1999
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- This polygon shapefile depicts land ownership and management within the Russian River basin in California: distinguishing local, state, and federal jurisdictions from private lands and delineating areas managed for the long-term maintenance of natural ecological processes and biodiversity. This layer therefore contains attributes both for ownership and for the level of biodiversity protection.
- Purpose
- Land management provides information on the protection status of lands for gap analysis. Following the identification of underprotected elements of biodiversity, land ownership data can help identify lands already in the public sector where a change in management could increase the amount of protection.

Bibliographic information
| Supplemental information |
UCSB Data Dictionary Minimum Mapping Unit: Unknown for land ownership, but many polygons are smaller than 1 hectare. For management level, MMU for upland sites is generally 200 hectares (500 acres) and for wetland sites is 80 hectares (200 acres). However, where digital map boundaries were readily available, smaller sites were incorporated as well, but were labeled as a special management level. |
