Working lands, agricultural lands, ranches, farms and forests that support land-based livelihoods, are vital to provide food, jobs and resources to the region. Working lands represent a large portion of the Coastal Blueprint ecoregion and when managed sustainably can enhance habitat and connectivity for fish and wildlife species. Through collaboration with landowners, land managers, government agencies, and private industry across the ecoregion we can develop region-wide strategies that benefit species, the local economy, landowners and the environment. This data shows working lands value across the region modeled as areas with high ecological value, timber harvest, and big game recreation.

Washington State Department of Natural Resources, Oregon Department of Forestry, California State Board of Equalization Data inputs in Model: Gap 1, 2, 3, and 4. Percent area of each in HUCs. Percent area GAP values 1 and 2 weighted sum GAP 1 (1) and GAP 2 (0.75). NOT GAP 1 and 2 because protected lands are not working lands. Percent area GAP values 3 and 4 weighted sum GAP 3 (1) and GAP 4(0.5). Percent area diffuse connectivity. Average density of Olive-sided flycatcher since they are early successional species. Timber Harvest: Timber Harvest: total volume of timber harvested in 2010 measured in thousands of board feet. Derived tabular data are based on the county level. Data were transformed to a standardized scale based on their maximum values. Hence, all values range between 0 and 1.Data have been summarized by 12-digit hydrologic unit code (HUC). Big Game Recreation: This EnviroAtlas dataset includes the total number of recreational days per year demanded by people ages 18 and over for big game hunting by location in the contiguous United States. Big game includes deer, elk, bear, and wild turkey. These values are based on 2010 population distribution, 2011 U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) Fish, Hunting, and Wildlife-Associated Recreation (FHWAR) survey data, and 2011 U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Forest Service National Visitor Use Monitoring program data, and have been summarized by 12-digit hydrologic unit code (HUC). Thresholds: Used first and third quartile values unless stated otherwise. If the first and third quartile were both zero then the third quartile value was taken from array with just HUCs with values. Not GAP 1 and 2 thresholds set to 25 percent true and 50 percent false GAP 3 and 4 set to 25 percent false and 75 percent true.ArcGIS FeatureLayerhttps://hub.arcgis.com/datasets/4777339260f74789a6a594b76fb57d9d_0engU.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Open DataPublicWorkingLandsEEMSmodel CLIP [United States]Web servicesUnited StatesLast Modified: 2018-04-25
