Our primary goal is to develop a LCD for the GRB that will serve as a model of strategic landscape conservation design that could be applied across multiple geographic focal areas. We aim to co-define the partners’ landscape scale priorities and use them, along with data and decision support tools, to support science-informed decisions by resource managers across the GRB. The project will generate spatially-explicit assessments of the current and potential future condition of ecosystems that support the SR and GN LCC conservation priorities. Important relationships with LCC partners will be strengthened and new partnerships forged for next steps in determining roles for the SR and GN in landscape scale conservation....
This website is a collaborative hub for Green River Basin Landscape Conservation Design (GRB LCD) participants to access project information, documents and data. It's a space for all to contribute ideas, news, project information or files through collaborative discussion, document editing and data sharing tools.
The Southern Rockies Landscape Conservation Cooperative (SRLCC) Steering Committee identified three large landscapes where the LCC partnership should develop landscape conservation designs: the Green River Basin, the Upper Rio Grande, and the Four-­‐Corners area of New Mexico, Colorado, Utah and Arizona. Because the Green River Basin encompasses part of the Great Northern LCC (GNLCC) as well, GNLCC will partner in this project, and both cooperatives have agreed that the SRLCC will lead development of the design. A Landscape Conservation Design (LCD) combines geospatial data with environmental information to create maps and models to inform conservation planning to inform biological and hydrological goals through...
ScienceBase brings together the best information it can find about USGS researchers and offices to show connections to publications, projects, and data. We are still working to improve this process and information is by no means complete. If you don't see everything you know is associated with you, a colleague, or your office, please be patient while we work to connect the dots. Feel free to contact sciencebase@usgs.gov.
