The Ocean Archive System searches our original datasets as they were submitted to us, not individual points or profiles. If you want to search and retrieve ocean profiles in a common format, or objectively analyzed fields, your better option may be to use one of our project applications. See: Access Data

| Title: | Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) Atlas: Southern California, maps and geographic information systems data (NCEI Accession 0013225) |
| Abstract: | This dataset comprises the Environmental Sensitivity Index (ESI) maps for the shoreline of southern California. ESI data characterize coastal environments and wildlife by their sensitivity to spilled oil. The ESI data include information for three main components: shoreline habitats, sensitive biological resources, and human-use resources. This atlas was developed to be utilized within desktop GIS systems and contains GIS files and related D-base files. Associated files include MOSS (Multiple Overlay Statistical System) export files, .PDF maps, and detailed user guides and metadata. |

| Supplementary information: | ESI MAPS SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR NAVIGATION. Northern California ESI data are available from the CD digital data release, March 2001 (vs.2), Seattle Washington, titled - ESI Atlas Northern California, maps and geographic information systems data, archived in NCEI accession 0013175. Central California ESI data are available from the CD digital data release, July 2006, Seattle Washington, titled - ESI Atlas: Central California (Including Monterey Bay Sanctuary), maps and geographic information systems data, archived in NCEI accession 0013176. San Francisco Bay ESI data are available from the CD digital data release, March 2001 (vs. 3), Seattle Washington, titled - ESI Atlas San Francisco Bay, California maps and geographic information systems data, archived in NCEI accession 0013224. California ESI data are available from the CD titled - ESI Atlases: A sampling of digital data for geographic information systems, South Carolina, California, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, archived in NCEI accession 0046075. Updated Southern California ESI data are available from the DVD digital data re-release, April 2009, Seattle, Washington, titled - ESI Atlas: California; Northern (2008), Southern (1995), Central (2006), and San Francisco (1998) maps and geographic information systems data, South Carolina, California, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington, archived in NCEI accession 0052935. The intertidal habitats were mapped during aerial and ground surveys conducted from 12-14 October 1993. The biological and human-use resources data were compiled by regional biologists in 1994. The dates for the original biological data vary (roughly from the 1970s to the 1990s) and are documented in within the detailed metadata file. DATA SET CREDIT: This project was supported by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), National Ocean Service, Office of Response and Restoration, Hazardous Materials Response Division, Seattle, Washington. The original data in this accession were obtained on CD-ROM/DVD-ROM. The original disc for this NCEI accession has been transferred to the NOAA Central Library. A copy of each disc can be generated using the .iso files in the data/0-data/disc_image/ using appropriate authoring software. Additional copies of the original disk may be obtained by contacting the National Ocean Service, Office of Response and Restoration, Hazardous Materials Response Division, Seattle, Washington. Additional ESI Atlases for other regions of the U.S. have been archived at NCEI. |
