NY/NJ Metro Area, Hudson River, and South Long Island 2016 BIRDSPT Points

Description

This data set contains sensitive biological resource data for raptors in the New York/New Jersey Metro Area, Hudson River, and South Long Island region. Vector points in this data set represent raptor nesting sites. Species-specific abundance, seasonality, status, life history, and source information are stored in associated data tables (described below) designed to be used in conjunction with this spatial data layer. This data set is a portion of the ESI data for the NY/NJ Metro Area, Hudson River, and South Long Island. As a whole, the ESI data characterize the marine and coastal environments and wildlife by their sensitivity to spilled oil, and include information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources. See also the BIRDS (Bird Polygons) data layer for additional bird information.
