NOTE: This download link includes Fish Regions, Freshwater Ecoregions, and Freshwater Resilience. Freshwater ecoregions provide a global biogeographic regionalization of the Earth's freshwater biodiversity. These units are distinguished by patterns of native fish distribution resulting from large-scale geoclimatic processes and evolutionary history. The freshwater ecoregion boundaries generally, though not always, correspond with those of watersheds. Within individual ecoregions there will be turnover of species, such as when moving up or down a river system, but taken as a whole an ecoregion will typically have a distinct evolutionary history and/or suite of ecological processes (Abell et al. 2008). The WWF defined...
The resistance surface is the basis for the landscape permeability analysis and has a great deal of influence on the final terrestrial landscape resilience scores. As such, great pains were taken to make this dataset as reflective of actual ground condition as possible. Each dataset used was evaluated at several locations, and multiple draft versions of the resistance surface were produced until reviewers were satisfied with the data.Each cell has been assigned a value, or weighting, representing it's hardness/ impermeability to species movement and ecological flows. Higher values are more difficult to cross, while lower values are easier. Natural lands are assigned a value of 1, meaning the cost to move across...

This dataset compiles land ownership and management data from state and federal agencies to create a map showing ownership, management, and conservation status of all land in Alaska. State, federal, and private lands, including Native corporations and Native allotments, are included. Conservation status describes the degree to which land, particularly public land, is legally designated and explicitly managed for biodiversity conservation. The most common classification, developed by the USGS GAP Program (www.gap.uidaho.edu), classifies land management types into four conservation status categories according to the degree to which the land is explicitly managed for conservation. In general, conservation status 1...

We have defined resilience as a function of both a site’s diversity of topoclimates and the site’s ability to support species movement, or terrestrial landscape permeability. Here, we posit that topoclimates provide species localized refugia from the direct effects of a changing climate, whereas landscape permeability reflects the ability of the landscape mosaic to facilitate terrestrial species movement to and between topoclimates as they shift in response to their respective climatic envelopes.90 m topoclimate data, scaled from 0.2 – 1, were multiplied with terrestrial landscape permeability data, scaled from 0 – 1, to generate a resilience value for every 90 m cell across the project area. A full description...

Note: The download link includes Fish Regions, Freshwater Ecoregions, and Freshwater Resilience. Within each freshwater ecoregion, we defined one to four discrete fish regions using a cluster analysis of the USGS 8-digit Hydrologic Units (HUC) based on similarities in their native fish composition. The analysis was based on a previously developed list of native species present within each HUC (NatureServe, 2008). The cluster analysis defined up to four clusters within each freshwater ecoregion using similarity of composition (Linkage method: Flexible beta, Distance measure: Sorensen (Bray-Curtis), Flexible beta value of -0.250). To determine the faunal distinctiveness between clusters, we performed an indicator...
