Outer Coast of Washington and Oregon 2014 ESI REPTILES & AMPHIBIAN Polygons

Description

This data set contains sensitive biological resource data for Leatherback sea turtles for the Outer Coast of Washington and Oregon. Vector polygons in this data set represent turtle distributions and seasonality. Species specific abundance, seasonality, status, life history, and source information are stored in relational data tables (described below) 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.
