Description: This layer is a polygon file containing CMECS Aquatic Setting classes for the Columbia River estuary. The CMECS Aquatic Setting classification distinguishes oceans, estuaries and lakes, deep and shallow waters and submerged and intertidal environments within which more refined classification of geological, physicochemical, and biological information can be organized. It is comprised of three hierarchical levels (System, Subsystem and Tidal Zone) and provides the context for all CMECS components. We used methods developed in Oregon to classify estuaries using CMECS. Detailed information on the Oregon methods can be found here: http://www.coastalatlas.net/documents/cmecs/EPSM_CoreGISMethods.pdf

Description: This layer is a polygon file containing CMECS Geoform Component classes for the Columbia River estuary. The Geoform Component describes the major geomorphic and structural characteristics of the coast and seafloor. This component is divided into four subcomponents that describe tectonic and physiographic settings and two levels of geoform elements (based upon the scale of the features) that include geological, biogenic, and anthropogenic geoform features. Representative units include channel, tidal flat, fill area, and dock/piers, We used methods developed in Oregon to classify estuaries using CMECS.

Description: This layer is a polygon file containing CMECS Substrate Component classes for the Columbia River estuary. Substrate is defined in CMECS as “the non-living materials that form an aquatic bottom or seafloor, or that provide a surface (e.g., floating objects, buoys) for growth of attached biota. Substrate may be composed of any substance, natural or manmade”.There are three primary CMECS substrate types: Biogenic, Geologic, and Anthropogenic.

Description: These data delineate intertidal substrate for the Oregon ocean shoreline. Source data include NOAA's Mean Lower Low Water (MLLW) 4-band aerial imagery (2012-2017), USGS's digital elevation model (2016), and ShoreZone data sets. Habitats were classified using the federal Coastal and Marine Ecological Classification Standard (CMECS).
