Display Field: Id

Type: Feature Layer

Geometry Type: esriGeometryPolygon

Description: Forest Category Identifies properties containing portions of forested areas categorized by size (small, medium, large) associated with higher natural systems services. Areas of forested cover mapped by size used to determine ecosystems services. Mapped data derived from National Land Cover Dataset (2019) for Dauphin County. Code Values 4 = Not forested1= Small (Less than 500 acres)2 = Medium (Between 500 and 750 acres)3 = Large (Greater than 750 acres)Forests and understory areas are home to 80% of the world’s terrestrial biological diversity. In terms of habitat, it is important to understand that the size, location, and types of woodland cover affect the value they provide. Forests that are larger than 750 acres provide the habitat required to sustain breeding populations of wildlife. A broad winged hawk, for example, uses a breeding area of mostly forest (80%); and of that forest, half or more of it is core, which equates to around 750 total acres. Areas over 500 acres are needed by migrating songbirds. Tolerance to forest fragmentation varies, and the amount of edge can affect a forest’s quality. For instance, forests less than 150 acres, or formed in long strips, are lower quality than forests 150 acres square.
