  • San Fernando Valley Science Project Field Trip
    San Fernando Valley Science Project Field Trip Sepulveda Basin - San Vicente Peak - Franklin Canyon Chaparral Biome (Sides of Franklin Canyon; San Vicente Peak) (By: Cathy Jacobs, PH.D, Dept. of Biology California State University Dominguez Hills; http://www.urbanedpartnership.org) "Chaparral is the dominant habitat found in the mountains of Southern California. It can be divided into the lower chaparral (from about 1000-5000 ft.) and the upper chaparral (above 5000 ft.) These are divided by their tolerance for snow. Plants in the lower chaparral can tolerate frost, but not snow, while plants in the upper chaparral can tolerate snow. Steep hillsides with poor, thin soil cannot support larger plants, but chaparral can grow here. The plants must be able to tolerate long periods without rain, in dry soil, with baking sun. These plants are seldom drought-deciduous. Most are evergreen, since they do most of their growth in the cool moist season. This vegetation is often called sclerophyllous, since the leaves are often small, hard, with waxy coatings or epidermal hairs. These help reduce water loss, and may also reduce temperature. They often have two root systems; shallow roots for catching water when it falls as rain, and tap roots. Some chaparral plants are allelopathic, producing toxins which inhibit plant growth near them. There is a pronounced north-slope, south-slope difference in species composition, with, Scarlet Larkspur, south-facing slope plants having smaller leaves. This habitat is fire-adapted, promotes fire, and requires fire to persist. Plants in the chaparral either are resprouters (sprouting back from the surviving roots) or reseeders (requiring fire to promote germination of the seeds).

Box 944209 Sacramento, California 94244-2090 Mountain Lion ESU Dear Ms. Burkett: The Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority (MRCA) both owns and manages tens of thousands of acres of open space in the southern California-proposed evolutionarily significant unit (ESU) for mountain lions. National Park Service (NPS) researchers from the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area have presumably provided extensive mountain lion tracking and genetic data for over a dozen collared lions in the Verdugo Mountains, Santa Monica Mountains, Simi Hills, and Santa Susana Mountains. The MRCA wants to call attention to the lion data in Santa Monica Mountains east of the 405 freeway and in particular to the presence of lions between the 405 freeway and the 101 freeway in the Cahuenga Pass. The continuous multi-year presence of lion P-22 in Griffith Park at the eastern tip of the range is common knowledge. The eastward crossing of the 405 freeway by P-61, and his foray tracked by NPS as far east as Benedict Canyon, shows the viability of lion habitat in the far eastern Santa Monica Mountains. The dramatic footage soon thereafter of a larger uncollared male lion treeing P-61 still east of the 405 freeway; and then P-61 being killed by a car on the freeway demonstrates both that lions cross the 405 freeway and that there is a resident male lion between the 405 freeway and 101 freeway.
