Abstract: The data in this data series represent a set of multi-band rasters, each containing 20 bioclimatic variables for the continental United States for the years 1980 - 2009. Staff at the U.S. Geological Survey, Fort Collins Science Center developed these raster layers using 2-km time series data created by Climate Source, Inc. and Spatial Climate Analysis Service (SCAS) at Oregon State University. The original climate data for these rasters came from multiple climate station point measurements. Using these station measurements, Climate Source/SCAS produced interpolated climate grids which became the inputs in the algorithm used by the USGS to derive the bioclimatic variables. The values within each raster...
Seasonal change is important to consider when managing conservation areas at landscape-scales. The study of such patterns throughout the year is referred to as phenology. Recurring life-cycle events that are initiated and driven by environmental factors include animal migration and plant flowering. Phenological events, such as fall color change in deciduous forests, the first flowering in spring, and for those with allergies, the start of the pollen season, capture public attention. These events can impact our daily lives, provide clues to help understand and manage ecosystems, and provide evidence of how climate variability can impact the natural cycle of plants and animals. Phenological observations can be gathered...
Metadata Wizard THIS VERSION OF THE TOOL HAS BEEN REPLACED BY AN UPDATED VERSION Users should obtain the new version of the Metadata Wizard at the links below: The user manual is available here: https://usgs.github.io/fort-pymdwizard/index.html Software installer can be downloaded here: https://github.com/usgs/fort-pymdwizard/releases This tool will eventually replace the Metadata Wizard hosted from this page to eliminate dependencies on ESRI ArcDesktop and to enable Mac users to utilize the Metadata Wizard.
