   Caption:  This chart shows vegetation coverage by size classes for a subset of Sulphur Creek Calwater Planning Watersheds.  Data are derived from a 1999 Landsat image by the U.S. Forest Service.  The majority of the forested areas contain small/medium and medium/large trees with less coverage of small trees and saplings.  There are very few large trees (<1.7%).  The only very large trees cover 0.1% of the North Branch Little Sulphur Creek Calwater.  The vegetation classification is accurate at a one-hectare scale and is suitable for stand classification.   Click on Map to see spatial data.  Vegetation is classified according to diameter at breast height (DBH): Giant > 50", Very Large = 40-50" DBH, Large = 30-39.9" DBH, Medium/Large = 20-29.9" DBH, Small/Medium = 12-19.9" DBH, Small = 5-11.9" DBH, Saplings = 1-4.9" DBH, Non-Forest = No trees, shrubs, grass, bare soil.
