Title
Total Score HUC 8 Sagebrush Core and Growth and BRAT 2 [U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service]
Description
This layer creates a total mesic restoration potential score at the HUC 8 planning scale.Total score of 1 is lowest priority and 10 is highest priority. The score is composed of 2 sub scores described below.For both Planning and Site Level work, this layer includes polygons showcasing the percentage of each Idaho HUC (8 or 12) in Sagebrush Core and Growth categories based on the Sagebrush Conservation Design. These HUCs are divided into 5 equal intervals 0-20%, 20-40%, 40-60%, 60-80%, and 80-100% and symbolized, with dark colors showing more sagebrush core and growth. In addition, they are scored 1-5 with 1 signifying HUCs averaging the least amount of Sagebrush per HUC and 5 being areas averaging the most Sagebrush per HUC.The Beaver Restoration Assessment Tool (BRAT) downloads for the state of Idaho were incorporated into the analysis. The results for perennial streams were queried to include only the streams categorized in the BRAT analysis as Easiest- low hanging fruit, or Straightforward with the purpose of selecting streams where it might be easiest to provide process-based restoration. After the BRAT data was filtered on these categories it was clipped to find only the streams that were falling within Sagebrush Core and Growth areas or a 500ft buffer of Core and Growth Areas. The resulting BRAT streams that fit these two criteria - in Easiest or Straightforward areas and within a 500ft boundary of Sagebrush Core and Growth areas were summed based on stream miles per HUC. They were binned into 5 categories using Quantile and scored 1-5 with the HUCs having the most stream miles for potential restoration receiving a 5, and those with the least stream miles receiving a 1. These steps were taking for both HUC 8 and HUC12.
