What are the designated climate impact regions?Based on the factors described above, 11 regions were identified (see Figure 2).Some of the regions were based on specific factors particularly relevant to theregion. For example, the Central Valley was split into north and south based onhydrologic boundaries; this results in the Northern Central Valley region containingall counties draining to the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. The Sierra Nevada areawas split based on ecosystem differences as well as variation in projected climateimpacts. The Bay-Delta is the only region that shares all its counties with otherregions. The designation of the Bay-Delta as a region recognizes that this area isdistinct due to its elevation profile and flood vulnerability. Additional detail aboutthe characteristics of each region can be found in the following section.The regions are defined as follows:• North: Lassen, Modoc, Shasta, Siskiyou, and Trinity counties• North Coast: Del Norte, Humboldt, Lake, and Mendocino counties• Bay Area: Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Francisco, San Mateo,Santa Clara, Solano, and Sonoma counties• Northern Central Valley: Butte, Colusa, Glenn, Madera, Merced,Sacramento, San Joaquin, Stanislaus, Sutter, Tehama, Yolo, and Yuba counties• Bay-Delta: Contra Costa, Sacramento, San Joaquin, Solano, and Yolo counties• Southern Central Valley: Fresno, Kern, Kings, and Tulare counties• Central Coast: Monterey, San Benito, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, andSanta Cruz counties• North Sierra: Amador, Calaveras, El Dorado, Mariposa, Nevada, Placer,Plumas, Sierra, and Tuolumne counties• Southeast Sierra: Alpine, Inyo, and Mono counties• South Coast: Los Angeles, Orange, San Diego, and Ventura counties• Desert: Imperial, Riverside, and San Bernardino countiesAPG: UNDERSTANDING REGIONAL CHARACTERISTICS PAGE 4
