Description

This data set contains sensitive biological resource data for alcids, diving birds, gulls and terns, passerine birds, pelagic birds, raptors, shorebirds, wading birds, and waterfowl for the Outer Coast of Washington and Oregon. Vector polygons in this data set represent birds nesting, migratory staging, wintering sites, and general use areas. Vector lines in this data set represent nesting, roosting, and/or wintering sites. Vector points in this data set represent bird nesting and roosting sites. Species specific abundance, seasonality, status, life history, and source information are stored in relational data tables designed to be used in conjunction with this spatial data layer. This data set comprises a portion of the ESI data for Outer Coast of Washington and Oregon. ESI data characterize the marine and coastal environments and wildlife by their sensitivity to spilled oil. The ESI data include information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources.
