Title: CMECS Estuarine Substrate Component v.0.4, OCMP, 2014
Geospatial_Data_Presentation_Form: vector digital data
Description:
Abstract:
This layer is a polygon file containing CMECS Substrate Component classes for Oregon Estuaries. 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.
Purpose:
To depict CMECS Substrate Component classes for Oregon Estuaries.

Enumerated_Domain_Value: 1.1
Enumerated_Domain_Value_Definition:
Rock Substrate - Igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary rock with particle sizes greater than or equal to 4.0 meters (4,096 millimeters) in any dimension that cover 50% or greater of the Geologic Substrate surface.

Enumerated_Domain:
Enumerated_Domain_Value: 1.2
Enumerated_Domain_Value_Definition:
Unconsolidated Mineral Substrate - Geologic Substrates with less than 50% cover of Rock Substrate. This class uses Folk (1954) terminology to describe any mix of loose mineral substrate that occurs at any range of sizes—from Boulders to Clay.

Enumerated_Domain_Value: 1.2.1
Enumerated_Domain_Value_Definition:
Coarse Unconsolidated Mineral Substrate - Geologic Substrate surface layer contains > 5% Gravel (particles 2 millimeters to < 4,096 millimeters). These sediments are classified using the upper three rows of the Folk (1954) Gravel-Sand-Mud diagram.

Enumerated_Domain_Value_Definition:
Fine Unconsolidated Mineral Substrate - Geologic Substrate surface layer contains less than 5% gravel (particles 2 millimeters to < 4,096 millimeters in diameter). These sediments are classified using the bottom two rows of the Folk (1954) Gravel-Sand-Mud diagram, and the entire Folk (1954) Sand-Silt-Clay diagram.

Enumerated_Domain_Value: 3.1
Enumerated_Domain_Value_Definition:
Anthropogenic Rock - Anthropogenic Substrate that is primarily composed of natural mineral materials that were purposefully or accidentally deposited by humans. This includes breakwaters made of natural stone, dredge material, artificial reefs made of natural stone, as well as beach nourishment and beach fill.

Enumerated_Domain_Value: 3.3
Enumerated_Domain_Value_Definition:
Construction Materials - Anthropogenic Substrate that is composed of any single construction material or combination of construction materials (concrete, brick, rebar, pipe, porcelain, fiberglass, rubber, plastic, < 50% wood, < 50% metal, etc.) that were manufactured by humans. This substrate may be composed of one or many types of these materials. If anthropogenic wood or metal constitute a dominant fraction of the materials, the substrate is classified as Anthropogenic Wood or Metal, accordingly.
