Attributes of Upper Mississippi River System contiguous forest areas

To support floodplain forest research and management actions on the Upper Mississippi River System (UMRS), contiguous forested areas in the UMRS floodplain were developed and a wide range of attributes were created that define basic ecosystem conditions within such forested areas. The data allows users to query on a set of attributes (e.g., size, shape, inundation characteristics, etc?) to visualize the distribution of various ecological conditions. In addition, the data allow for future data analyses of relationships among different ecological conditions and other data, such as animal and plant population distributions. This data set is based upon the 2020 land cover/land use data developed by the Upper Mississippi River Restoration Program Long Term Resource Monitoring element.
