* » Abstract |
This data set contains sensitive biological resource data for wading birds, shorebirds, waterfowl, raptors, diving birds, seabirds, passerine birds, and gulls and terns in North Carolina. Vector polygons in this data set represent bird nesting, migratory staging, wintering sites, and general use areas. Species-specific abundance, seasonality, status, life history, and source information are stored in associated data tables (described below) designed to be used in conjunction with this spatial data layer. This data set is a portion of the ESI data for North Carolina. As a whole, the ESI data characterize the marine and coastal environments and wildlife by their sensitivity to spilled oil, and include information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources. See also the BIRDSPT (Bird Points) data layer for additional bird information. |
* Purpose |
The ESI data are intended to provide baseline environmental data for oil spill planning and response. The Clean Water Act with amendments by the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 requires response plans for immediate and effective protection of sensitive resources. The ESI data may be appropriate for many other coastal management efforts, though the original intent should be kept in mind. |

• Entity Attribute Overview |
The primary attribute tables associated with the ESI biology data are BIOFILE, SOURCES, and BREED_DT. The geographic data layer containing biological resource information (in this case, BIRDS) is linked to the BIOFILE using the RARNUM field. There is a many-to-many relationship from the data layer to the BIOFILE, as an RARNUM may be repeated in several geographic features. Likewise, in the BIOFILE, the same RARNUM may appear in multiple records, representing a unique combination of species found in that region. To be represented by the same RARNUM, these species groups must also share the same seasonality, concentration, mapping qualifier, and source information. The items in the BIOFILE are ELEMENT, SUBELEMENT, NAME, GEN_SPEC, S, F, STATE, S_DATE, F_DATE, GRANK, GRANKDATE, MAPPING_QUALIFIER, CONC, JAN, FEB, MAR, APR, MAY, JUN, JUL, AUG, SEP, OCT, NOV, DEC, BREED1, BREED2, BREED3, BREED4, BREED5, RARNUM, G_SOURCE, S_SOURCE, and BREED. The G_SOURCE and S_SOURCE fields provide links to the SOURCES table, where object level source information is available. The BREED field is the link to the BREED_DT table, where searchable breed information is provided. The links to both of these tables are also many-to-many. During the collection of the ESI data, six relational data tables are used to store the attribute data. These are the BIORES, BREED, SEASONAL, SOURCES, SPECIES, and STATUS tables. When we create new ESI data, we populate these tables to maintain the integrity of the data collected. Once completed, all information populating these tables is collapsed into the BIOFILE to ease data queries and general usability of the final product. |

• Data Use Constraints |
DO NOT USE MAPS FOR NAVIGATIONAL PURPOSES. Management boundaries are not to be considered legal boundaries. Edges may have been altered for cartographic processes. Note that the ESI database should not be used to the exclusion of other pertinent data or information held by state or federal agencies or other organizations. Likewise, information contained in the database cannot be used in place of consultations with environmental, natural resource, and cultural resource agencies, or in place of field surveys. Recognize that the information contained in the ESI database represents known concentration areas or occurrences of natural, cultural, and human-use resources, but does not necessarily represent the full distribution or range of each species or resource. This is particularly important to recognize when considering potential impacts to protected resources, such as endangered species, wetlands, etc. Besides the above warnings, there are no use constraints on these data. Acknowledgment of the originators, publishers, contributors, and sources listed would be appreciated in products derived from these data. |

Data Quality

Accuracy |
A multi-stage error checking process is used to verify both attribute accuracy and logical consistency throughout data production. The process includes a standardized data entry methodology, data review by in-house and external resource experts, a final Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) process, and multiple automated logical consistency checks. Quantitative data (such as densities, counts, abundances, or concentrations) provided by resource experts for inclusion in the data set may vary widely in attribute accuracy, depending upon the methodology used to collect and compile such data. For a more detailed evaluation of source data attribute accuracy, contact the sources listed in the Lineage section. |
Analytical Accuracy | |
Horizontal Positional Accuracy |
Spatial components for the biological data layers can come from expert interviews, hardcopy, or digital sources. Some of the spatial components of the biological data layers may have been developed using regional experts who estimate concentration areas. It is difficult to estimate the positional accuracy of such data, except to state that they are compiled on digital base maps with a scale of 1:24,000 or larger. Some of the spatial components of the biological data sets are developed from pre-existing digital or hardcopy sources and reflect the positional accuracy of these original data. Note that biological resource data by their very nature are considered "fuzzy", and this should be understood when considering the positional accuracy of vector digital objects representing these resources. See the Lineage and Process_Description sections for more information on the original source data and how these data were integrated or manipulated to create the final data set. |

Conceptual Consistency |
A multi-stage error checking process, described in the above Attribute Accuracy Report, is used to verify both attribute accuracy and logical consistency throughout data production. This process includes multiple automated logical consistency checks that test the files for missing or duplicate data, rules for proper coding, GIS topological consistencies, and SQL SERVER(R) to ArcGIS(R) consistencies. A final review is made by the GIS manager, before the final Geodatabase and metadata are created. After the data are delivered to NOAA, they are again subjected to several consistency checks, and processed into the final delivery format. |

» Description |
Bird species in this feature class are included either because of their likelihood of direct or indirect impact by an oil spill or similar incident, their general rarity or imperilment, or their special protection status as threatened or endangered. Migratory or wintering concentration areas, nesting sites and colonies, and protected species are especially emphasized. Bird concentration areas depicted in this atlas are described for various groups of birds below. |

Colonial waterbirds, shorebirds, and wading birds: Nesting locations for terns, gulls, shorebirds, egrets, and herons were mapped using digital polygon data obtained from North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NC NHP) and North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NC WRC). Concentration values were generalized when presented for a range of dates (10-25, or 100s, 1000s, etc.) or left blank when not available. Migratory and overwintering hotspot locations of terns and shorebirds (specifically piping plover - federally and state endangered, and red knots - federally threatened, and Wilson's plover - state conservation concern) were mapped using survey data provided by NC Audubon, NC NHP, NC WRC, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), and expert opinion. Concentration values, when presented, represent ranges or generalized values. |

» Description |
Marsh obligate species: Salt and freshwater marshes are ranked as highly sensitive to oiling due to their biological productivity and the tendency for oil to persist based on low relative exposure to wind/wave energy and the difficulties associated with human cleanup activities. Marshes are extremely valuable for a suite of bird species in the region including rails, bitterns, and marsh obligate passerines, and should be prioritized for protection wherever they exist. Due to the difficulties of surveying in these areas, and in an effort to highlight specific known nesting occurrences, we only mapped nesting locations from NC NHP and NC WRC nesting survey data. General distributions based on habitat associations were not mapped as they have been in the past. Therefore, an absence of a polygon in a region does not mean a species will not be present in the event of a spill. |

» Description |
Waterfowl: The large bays, estuaries and fringing wetland habitat that characterize coastal North Carolina support large numbers of wintering and migrating waterfowl. Similar to most states along the Atlantic Flyway, North Carolina collects yearly aerial survey data in mid-winter to identify the habitats needed to support these large influxes of waterfowl. Mid-winter aerial survey data from 2011-2015 was provided by NC WRC and used in this update. Based on consultation with resource experts, winter waterfowl distributions were mapped to the predefined unit boundaries themselves rather than interpolating species/unit counts to suitable habitat within each unit. In an effort to reduce complexity and place an emphasis on the overall number of individuals utilizing a particular region, we chose to only map species that contained 100 or more individuals per survey area. Counts of species that did not meet this threshold within a surveyed area were aggregated together and displayed as wintering "waterfowl". This method reduces clutter on the map while still placing an emphasis on the regions providing critical over-wintering waterfowl habitat. Concentration values, when populated, indicate a generalized maximum yearly count for that species and unit (100s, 1,000s, 10,000s, etc.). Additional areas providing critical foraging habitat and refuge areas for migrating and wintering waterfowl were mapped using data from the Atlantic Coast Joint Venture - Waterfowl Implementation Plan, North Carolina Gameland designations, and expert knowledge. Generalized nesting locations for resident waterfowl species were obtained from expert knowledge. Similar to other marsh obligate nesting birds, the difficult nature of surveying in marsh habitat resulted in nesting waterfowl distributions in the area to be underrepresented. Resident populations of waterfowl depend heavily on salt and freshwater marshes (American black duck, blue-winged teal and gadwall) and freshwater swamps and surrounding upland forests (wood duck) for breeding and therefore could be present within this habitat during the spring and summer breeding months. For the purposes of this feature class, typical nesting habitat within survey units expected to hold the largest aggregations of nesting waterfowl were selected and mapped as "GENERAL DISTRIBUTION" polygons with the breeding months indicated in the seasonal presence attributes. |

Raptors: Nesting locations for bald eagles (state threatened), osprey, and northern harriers were mapped using data from the NC NHP. Wintering locations and migratory stopover concentrations for the aforementioned species as well as peregrine falcons and short-eared owls were also mapped using data from NC NHP. |

» Description |
Seabirds: No pelagic seabirds nest within the AOI but certain species use the offshore region depicted within the atlas. The Gulf Stream waters travel close to the coast of North Carolina off the tip of Cape Hatteras. As stated in the North Carolina Important Bird Area (NC IBA) report, this area "has the greatest diversity of seabirds and marine mammals in the southeastern Unites States." In addition to the diversity supported in the offshore regions of North Carolina, the NC IBA report also stresses that this region may support a globally significant proportion of black-capped and Bermuda petrels. High use seabird areas depicted in this atlas were mapped primarily using data from these NC IBA designations. Although a few areas are depicted as having higher than average densities of seabirds, all offshore waters in North Carolina will support some level of seabirds and sea ducks in all months of the year and should be considered highly sensitive to oil spills. |

Rare, threatened and endangered passerines: Nesting location of rare, threatened or endangered passerines were included as polygons even when hydrographically removed from large waterbodies in an effort to make this regional update more usable in an all-hazards context. These data were obtained from the NC NHP database. These species are not generally thought of as at risk from an oil spill itself but their listing status should be taken into consideration when conducting cleanup operations in the vicinity of known nesting locations. |
