We combined preexisting spatial data projecting losses of hemlock due to HWA developed by the USDA Forest Service Forest Health Protection program (USFS 2012) with stream corridor and catchment data to quantify potential losses at 50', 100' and 200' buffers of stream reaches and summarized the results to HUC12 sub-catchments.200-foot riparian buffers with projected BA lossesPolygon delineations of 200-foot riparian buffers and metrics of projected HWA impacts (2013-2027).VMC.1312.2628mySQL/femc/data/archive/project/hemlock-woolly-adelgid-riparian-losses-new-york/dataset/200-foot-riparian-buffers-with-projected2018-06-012018-11-01BA_peAcBA losses (ft2) per acre of bufferNo description for this attributedecimalmeter-1Pct_BAPercent (%) loss of total stand BA in bufferNo description for this attributedecimalmeter-1
