Abstract:
This is a point shapefile of the transect locations for study FS 1706-09. Each location is the starting point for a pair (E-W) of transects. This shapefile was originally digitized from data manuscripted on USGS 7.5 minute maps from pinholes in aerial photos that had been used to locate the transects in field during the original study. |
Metadata elements shown with blue text are defined in the Federal Geographic Data Committee's (FGDC) Content Standard for Digital Geospatial Metadata (CSDGM). Elements shown with green text are defined in the ESRI Profile of the CSDGM. Elements shown with a green asterisk (*) will be automatically updated by ArcCatalog. ArcCatalog adds hints indicating which FGDC elements are mandatory; these are shown with gray text.
This is a point shapefile of the transect locations for study FS 1706-09. Each location is the starting point for a pair (E-W) of transects. This shapefile was originally digitized from data manuscripted on USGS 7.5 minute maps from pinholes in aerial photos that had been used to locate the transects in field during the original study.
The Forest Service Study 1706-09 transect locations were created to compare vegetation responses to grazing yearlong, in the growing season, and in the dormant season on low-value semidesrt grass-scrub ranges in southern Arizona.
