Metadata report for Implementing the Triad Approach in Alberta's Managed Forests Input data

Summary: This data was used to derived stand productivity based on existing tree classes. It was then
reclassified as a raster and used in the weighted overlay.
Description: The Phase 1 (Broad Scale) Forest Inventory was initiated in 1949 and completed by 1956.
The Phase 1 (Broad Scale) Forest Inventory included all publicly owned forested lands in the province
except Indian lands, national parks, and an area known as the Rocky Mountains Forest Reserve. The
Phase 1 (Broad Scale) Forest Inventory was used to define lands suitable for agriculture, to determine
timber harvest levels and plan forest protection and timber and industrial development. Through aerial
photo interpretation, land was classified as productive, potentially productive, or non-productive. On
productive forest land, homogeneous groups of trees were classified by 'cover types'. Cover types
included crown density, height and tree species. Burned, harvested or cultivated land was identified as
potentially productive. Non-productive lands included areas with organic soils, barren rock and lakes. No
ages or site classes are associated with the polygons. The minimum polygon size was 65 ha. These maps
are not available as geo-referenced rectified images or GIS-ready data.

Summary: This data was used as the extent of the study area.
Description: The Richness index for lichen was derived by taking a simple average of the standardized
richness index for each 1km^2 grid cell. Species richness was modelled by stacking predictions from
lichen habitat association models. Individual species models were built by relating the species’
occurrence data to three sets of environmental variables: vegetation types, human footprint, and
geographic location. Using these relationships, the mean occurrence probability of each species was
projected for each 1km^2 grid cell in the province. The species richness index for lichen was produced
by summing these predicted probabilities and scaling the values to range between 0 and 1 by dividing
each 1 km^2 grid cell value by maximum value over all grid cells.
