The layer shows the greater of the biggest remaining old forest up to 10% of the forested area or up to 30% of the naturally expected amount of old forest for each ecosystem, reflecting ecological variability in the natural historic distribution of old forest. In cases where big-treed ecosystems have less than 10% of the historic distribution of old growth, the biggest older mature forest was included to reach the target amount, if possible. This layer was produced by the Old Growth Technical Advisory Panel and further details on the methodology and links to full datasets can be found on the <a href="https://data.skeenasalmon.info/dataset/old-growth-deferral-areas">Skeena Salmon Data Centre</a>.</p> false Big-treed Old Growth - Nov.2021 fid 1 1 xsd:int the_geom 1 1 gml:MultiPolygonPropertyType value 1 1 xsd:int label 1 1 xsd:string
