  • Ventura County Plant Species of Local Concern
    Checklist of Ventura County Rare Plants (Twenty-second Edition) CNPS, Rare Plant Program David L. Magney Checklist of Ventura County Rare Plants1 By David L. Magney California Native Plant Society, Rare Plant Program, Locally Rare Project Updated 4 January 2017 Ventura County is located in southern California, USA, along the east edge of the Pacific Ocean. The coastal portion occurs along the south and southwestern quarter of the County. Ventura County is bounded by Santa Barbara County on the west, Kern County on the north, Los Angeles County on the east, and the Pacific Ocean generally on the south (Figure 1, General Location Map of Ventura County). Ventura County extends north to 34.9014ºN latitude at the northwest corner of the County. The County extends westward at Rincon Creek to 119.47991ºW longitude, and eastward to 118.63233ºW longitude at the west end of the San Fernando Valley just north of Chatsworth Reservoir. The mainland portion of the County reaches southward to 34.04567ºN latitude between Solromar and Sequit Point west of Malibu. When including Anacapa and San Nicolas Islands, the southernmost extent of the County occurs at 33.21ºN latitude and the westernmost extent at 119.58ºW longitude, on the south side and west sides of San Nicolas Island, respectively. Ventura County occupies 480,996 hectares [ha] (1,188,562 acres [ac]) or 4,810 square kilometers [sq. km] (1,857 sq. miles [mi]), which includes Anacapa and San Nicolas Islands. The mainland portion of the county is 474,852 ha (1,173,380 ac), or 4,748 sq.

  • Terr–3 Special-Status Plant Populations
    TERR–3 SPECIAL-STATUS PLANT POPULATIONS 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY During 2001 and 2002, the review of existing information, agency consultation, vegetation community mapping, and focused special-status plant surveys were completed. Based on California Native Plant Society’s (CNPS) Electronic Inventory of Rare and Endangered Vascular Plants of California (CNPS 2001a), CDFG’s Natural Diversity Database (CNDDB; CDFG 2003), USDA-FS Regional Forester’s List of Sensitive Plant and Animal Species for Region 5 (USDA-FS 1998), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Species List (USFWS 2003), and Sierra National Forest (SNF) Sensitive Plant List (Clines 2002), there were 100 special-status plant species initially identified as potentially occurring within the Study Area. Known occurrences of these species were mapped. Vegetation communities were evaluated to locate areas that could potentially support special-status plant species. Each community was determined to have the potential to support at least one special-status plant species. During the spring and summer of 2002, special-status plant surveys were conducted. For each special-status plant species or population identified, a CNDDB form was completed, and photographs were taken. The locations were mapped and incorporated into a confidential GIS database. Vascular plant species observed during surveys were recorded. No state or federally listed special-status plant species were identified during special- status plant surveys. Seven special-status plant species, totaling 60 populations, were identified during surveys. There were 22 populations of Mono Hot Springs evening-primrose (Camissonia sierrae ssp. alticola) identified. Two populations are located near Mammoth Pool, one at Bear Forebay, and the rest are in the Florence Lake area.

Stephens Spring 2016 Abstract Disturbance Macroecology: An Information Entropy Approach for Cross-System Comparisons of Ecosystems in Transition by Erica Anna Newman Doctor of Philosophy in Energy and Resources University of California, Berkeley Professor John Harte, Co-Chair Professor Max Alan Moritz, Co-Chair Little is known about how metrics of biodiversity and abundance scale in ecologically disturbed and disrupted systems. Natural disturbances have a fundamental role in structuring ecological communities, and the study of these processes and extension to novel ecological disruptions is of increasing importance due to global change and mounting human impacts. Numerous studies have demonstrated the importance of natural disturbance in determining basic ecological properties of an ecosystem, including species diversity, membership, and relative abundances of those species, as well as overall productivity. Although estimating ecological metrics at both the species and community level is of critical importance to conservation goals, predicting the impacts of disturbance and disruption, including anthropogenic changes, on ecosystems is a major problem for ecological theory for several reasons.

College Avenue Claremont, Calif. 91711 ABSTRACT The Liebre Mountains form a discrete unit of the Transverse Ranges of southern California. Geo­ graphically, the range is transitional to the San Gabriel Mountains, Inner Coast Ranges, Tehachapi Mountains, and Mojave Desert. A total of 1010 vascular plant taxa was recorded from the range, representing 104 families and 400 genera. The ratio of native vs. nonnative elements of the flora is 4:1, similar to that documented in other areas of cismontane southern California. The range is note­ worthy for the diversity of Quercus and oak-dominated vegetation. A total of 32 sensitive plant taxa (rare, threatened or endangered) was recorded from the range.

    Vegetation Descriptions SOUTH COAST AND MONTANE ECOLOGICAL PROVINCE CALVEG ZONE 7 March 30, 2009 Note: This Province consists of the Southern California Mountains and Valleys Section or "Mountains" (M262B) and the Southern California Coast Section or "Coast" (262B) Note the slope gradients as follows: High gradient or steep (greater than 50%) Moderate gradient or moderately steep (30% to 50%) Low gradient (less than 30%) CONIFER FOREST / WOODLAND DM BIGCONE DOUGLAS-FIR ALLIANCE Bigcone Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga macrocarpa) - dominated stands are found in the Transverse and Peninsular Ranges from the Mt. Pinos region south. The Bigcone Douglas-fir Alliance is defined by the clear dominance of this species among competing conifers. It has been mapped sparsely in four subsections in the Coast Section, and infrequently in seven subsections and abundantly in four subsections of the Mountains Section. These pure conifer or mixed conifer and hardwood stands occur at lower elevations, generally in the range 1400 – 5600 ft (426 - 1708 m) in the Coast Section and up to about 7000 ft (2135 m) in the Mountains Section. Although mature individuals are capable of sprouting from branches and boles after burning, intense or frequently repeated fires and drought cycles will tend to eliminate this conifer. However, Bigcone Douglas-fir may become locally dominant with Canyon Live Oak (Quercus chrysolepis) as an associated tree on protected mesic canyon slopes, but not at the highest elevations. Sites in this Alliance are usually north facing at lower elevations and south-facing or steeper slopes at upper elevations. Shrub associates commonly include species of Ceanothus, Birchleaf Mountain Mahogany (Cercocarpus betuloides), California Buckwheat (Eriogonum fasciculatum), Chamise (Adenostoma fasciculatum), and shrub forms of the Live Oaks (Quercus spp.).
