Topographic surveys were completed during eight summer surveys (in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2019, 2020 and 2021) at 10 sites along the Carmel River, CA: Berwick (BW), Control Reach (CR), Crossroads (CRO), DeDampierre Lower (DDL), DeDampierre Upper (DDU), Dam Reach (DM), Reservoir Reach (RS), San Carlos (SC), Sleepy Hollow (SH), and Schulte Road (SR)). Topographic measurements were made at multiple locations along four to six cross-section transects per site using a total station (at sites CR, RS, DM and SH) and with an auto level and survey rod (at sites DDU, DDL, BW, SR, SC and CRO). This dataset contains the cross-sectional elevation measurements for each transect and survey year. The elevation measurement locations along each transect were located by measuring distances between corresponding endpoint coordinates, starting from river left (see accompanying file within this data release for topographic survey transect endpoint coordinates). For the transects measured with a total station (CR, RS, DM and SH), horizontal coordinates, elevation and distance from the left bank end point are provided. For the transects measured with an auto level (DDU, DDL, BW, SR, SC and CRO), only elevation and distance from left bank end point are provided (horizontal coordinates are defined as NULL for these transects). Vertical coordinates are referenced to the NAVD88 vertical datum, in units of meters. Horizontal coordinates are referenced to the NAD83(2011) reference frame, projected in Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) coordinates (zone 10N). These data supersede grain-size data originally published in 2017 at https://doi.org/10.5066/F74M93HF.

The geospatial data presented here as ArcGIS layers denote landcover/landuse classifications to support field sampling efforts that occurred within the Cache Creek Settling Basin (CCSB) from 2010-2017. Manual photointerpretation of a National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) dataset collected in 2012 was used to characterize landcover/landuse categories (hereafter habitat classes). Initially 9 categories were assigned based on vegetation structure (Vegtype1). These were then parsed into two levels of habitat classes that were chosen for their representativeness and use for statistical analyses of field sampling. At the coarsest level (Landcover 1), five habitat classes were assigned: Agriculture, Riparian, Floodplain, Open Water, and Road. At the more refined level (Landcover 2), ten habitat classes were nested within these five categories. Agriculture was not further refined within Landcover 2, as little consistency was expected between years as fields rotated between corn, pumpkin, tomatoes, and other row crops. Riparian habitat, marked by large canopy trees (such as Populus fremontii (cottonwood)) neighboring stream channels, also was not further refined. Floodplain habitat was separated into two categories: Mixed NonWoody (which included both Mowed and Barren habitats) and Mixed Woody. This separation of the floodplain habitat class (Landcover1) into Woody and NonWoody was performed with a 100 m2 moving window analysis in ArcGIS, where habitats were designated as either ≥50% shrub or tree cover (Woody) or <50%, and thus dominated by herbaceous vegetation cover (NonWoody). Open Water habitat was refined to consider both agricultural Canal (created) and Stream (natural) habitats. Road habitat was refined to separate Levee Roads (which included both the drivable portion and the apron on either side) and Interior roads, which were less managed. The map was tested for errors of omission and commission on the initial 9 categories during November 2014. Random points (n=100) were predetermined, and a total of 80 were selected for field verification. Type 1 (false positive) and Type 2 (false negative) errors were assessed. The survey indicated several corrections necessary in the final version of the map. 1) We noted the presence of woody species in “NonWoody” habitats, especially Baccharus salicilifolia (mulefat). Habitats were thus classified as “Woody” only with ≥50% presence of canopy species (e.g. tamarisk, black willow) 2) Riparian sites were over-characterized, and thus constrained back to “near stream channels only”. Walnut (Juglans spp) and willow stands alongside fields and irrigation canals were changed to Mixed Woody Floodplain. Fine tuning the final habitat distributions was thus based on field reconnaissance, scalar needs for classifying field data (sediment, water, bird, and fish collections), and validation of data categories using species observations from scientist field notes. Calibration was made using point data from the random survey and scientist field notes, to remove all sources of error and reach accuracy of 100%. The coverage “CCSB_Habitat_2012” is provided as an ARCGIS shapefile based on a suite of 7 interconnected ARCGIS files coded with the suffixes: cpg, dbf, sbn, sbx, shp, shx, and prj. Each file provides a component of the coverage (such as database or projection) and all files are necessary to open the “CCSB_Habitat_2012.shp” file with full functionality.

This dataset contains the easting, northing, and elevation values of the river-right and river-left transect endpoint reference benchmarks (RBM and LBM) from survey transects at 10 survey reaches along the Carmel River, central California. Topographic surveys were completed on these transects during eight summer surveys (in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2019, 2020 and 2021). See accompanying file within this data release for elevation measurements. All data were collected in NAD83 UTM10N horizontal coordinates and NAVD88 Geoid 12B vertical coordinates, in units of meters. The positions of some reference marks were selected using only horizontal reference; the elevation values for these marks are set to a no data value of "NULL" in the data file.

Vector datasets of CWHR range maps are one component of California Wildlife Habitat Relationships (CWHR), a comprehensive information system and predictive model for Californias wildlife. The CWHR System was developed to support habitat conservation and management, land use planning, impact assessment, education, and research involving terrestrial vertebrates in California. CWHR contains information on life history, management status, geographic distribution, and habitat relationships for wildlife species known to occur regularly in California. Range maps represent the maximum, current geographic extent of each species within California. They were originally delineated at a scale of 1:5,000,000 by species-level experts and have gradually been revised at a scale of 1:1,000,000. For more information about CWHR, visit the CWHR webpage (https://www.wildlife.ca.gov/Data/CWHR). The webpage provides links to download CWHR data and user documents such as a look up table of available range maps including species code, species name, and range map revision history; a full set of CWHR GIS data; .pdf files of each range map or species life history accounts; and a User Guide.

This dataset is a collection of 1,253 sample points and associated crop types of fields for each examined year across the study period (2005 - 2020) in central California. These data represent labeled data that were used to train and test random forest classification models. Each sample point is the centroid of a field obtained from the California Department of Water Resources' 2018 crop type map. Crop types identified at each sample point was identified using high-resolution imagery and Landsat derived normalized difference vegetation index. Nine crop types were identified: rice, pasture, grain, field, citrus and mediterranean, deciduous fruit and nut, vineyard, fallow and young perennial, and truck, nursery, and berry. If a sample point location's crop type could not be identified then it was left blank.
