Description
We obtained the 1:100,000 streams layer from the MCWC CD-ROM and we are providing this summary for comparison with the other available streams layers,
1:24,000 USGS Streams, USFS Densified Streams, and DEM-Derived Streams.
This layer contains 3,016.9 km of streams for the study area. Using this figure and the area of the MCWC study region, the stream density of the area is 0.008 km stream per hectare or 1.29 miles of stream per square mile.
Uses
This layer is provided for comparison.
Notes
Data scale is very important when calculating some statistics such as stream density.
