Database of Riparian Floodplain Boundaries for the San Carlos and Gila Rivers -- 2019 Riparian Floodplain for the San Carlos River and Gila River within the Upper Gila River Level-4 Hydrologic Unit Code Watershed

This is a Child Item for the Parent data release, Mapping Riparian Vegetation Response to Climate Change on the San Carlos Apache Reservation and Upper Gila River Watershed to Inform Restoration Priorities: 1935 to Present - Database of Riparian Floodplain Boundaries for the San Carlos and Gila Rivers. This Child Item is the spatial data layer showing the 2019 riparian floodplain for the Gila River and San Carlos River within the full Upper Gila River Level-4 Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) watershed. This product was developed by digitizing the active channel and primary riparian floodplain using National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) aerial imagery from 2019 and 2020 (U.S. Department of Agriculture, 2021). This data was used in the development of the following data release: Petrakis, R.E., Norman, L.M., Middleton, B.R., 2023, Mapping Riparian Vegetation Response to Climate Change on the San Carlos Apache Reservation and Upper Gila River Watershed to Inform Restoration Priorities: 1935 to Present - Database of Trends in Vegetation Properties and Climate Adaptation Variables: U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066/P9HL0N5T. And in support of the following publication: Petrakis, R.E., Norman, L.M., Middleton, B.R., 2023. Riparian Vegetation Response amid Variable Climate Conditions across the Upper Gila River Watershed: Informing Tribal Restoration Priorities. Frontiers in Environmental Science. https://doi.org/10.3389/fenvs.2023.1179328.
