Habitat Rapid Assessment Survey - 2016 - Terrestrial Species Stressor Monitoring [ds2827]

Published by California Department of Fish and Wildlife | State of California | Metadata Last Checked: July 28, 2025 | Last Modified: 2023-11-29T19:12:15.192Z
Vegetation surveys were conducted at all Great Valley and Mojave Desert study sites between May and July 2016. These surveys followed the California Native Plant Society/Department of Fish and Wildlife protocol for vegetation rapid assessment and were representative of either the lifeform for which the survey site was selected or the dominant vegetation type encountered on site, if the preassigned lifeform is not found. The rapid assessment sample was based not on a plot but on a single representative stand with 12-20 of the dominant or characteristic species and their cover values recorded. The CDFW Vegetation Classification and Mapping Program reviewed and confirmed or corrected all field assessments herein.
