Young, D. Nagel, D. Horan, and M. Groce. 2015. The cold-water climate shield: Delineating refugia for preserving salmonid fishes through the 21st Century. Global Change Biology 21 doi:10.1111/gcb.12879. This feature class represents the historical (1970-1999 scenario for cutthroat trout, derived from the Climate Shield fish distribution models. These models provide stream-specific probabilistic predictions about the occurrence of juvenile bull trout and cutthroat trout in association with three different scenarios for climate change and brook trout invasions. These datasets indicate all potential cold-water habitats less than 11 degrees Celsius. The attribute fields CT_0BRK - CT_100BRK indicate the probabilities of cutthroat trout occurrence within a cold-water habitat based on the prevalence of brook trout at 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, or 100% of the sites within a habitat. The probabilities were predicted using the Climate Shield native trout models developed from known species occurrence in greater than 500 cold-water streams. The stream centerlines were based on the National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) but were modified for purposes of modeling and cross-walking to other datasets. This feature class represents the historical (1970-1999 scenario for cutthroat trout, derived from the Climate Shield fish distribution models.

Especially cold habitats could provide important refugia from both future environmental change and invasions by non-native species that prefer warmer waters. The Climate Shield website (https://www.fs.fed.us/rm/boise/AWAE/projects/ClimateShield.html) hosts geospatial data and related information that describes specific locations of cold-water refuge streams for native cutthroat trout and bull trout across the American West. Forecasts about the locations of refugia could enable the protection of key watersheds, be used to rally support among multiple stakeholders, and provide a foundation for planning climate-smart conservation networks that improve the odds of preserving native trout populations through the 21st century.

distributor https://apps.fs.usda.gov/arcx/rest/services/EDW/EDW_ClimateShield_01/MapServer/6 dataset Data entry is accomplished by authorized Forest Service personnel through a web application behind the U.S. Forest Service firewall and is restricted by access requirement protocols. Data is complete as of publication. Generally the source information used to record spatial locations are from: 1) on-screen digitizing with a georeferenced topographic or image background; or 2) GPS field collected positions. Horizontal accuracy is variable. Probabilities were predicted using the Climate Shield native trout models developed from known species occurrence in >500 cold-water streams. Habitat size was represented as the channel length of each cold-water habitat. The upstream extent of a habitat was delimited at 15% and VIC model flow predictions of summer flows > 0.0057 m3/s. 2018-01-01T00:00:00
