| FIG. D1. Select important metrics mapped for the study area by ecological process (habitat permeability (AC), ecological morphology (DF), and temperature-moisture (GI)). Circles represent sample locations. Metrics are as follows: (A) 1988 fire perimeters (red) with impervious surfaces (yellow), (B) NLCD cover classification, (C) canopy cover (0 (lt. green)- 100% (dark green)), (D) roughness at 15 × 15 window (0 (blue)100% (red)), (E) elevation relief ratio (0 (blue)100% (red)), (F) hierarchical slope position (blueorange, ridges in red), (G) growing season precipitation (low (red)high (blue)), (H) ssina (0 (blue)100% (red)), and (I) dd5 (low (blue)high (red)). |
