We developed spatial overlays (i.e., “threat matrices”) by combining spatial models of threats (30-m x 30-m pixels) with multispecies cores for sagebrush obligate bird abundance (1-mi2 hexagons). Spatial information was retained in the overlays for three categories of bird core areas (70, 50, and 25%) in the No to Low category of threat classification, and for the 70% bird core area (inclusive of the 50% and 25% cores) for the highest three categories of threat classification (No to Low, Moderate, High, and Very High). For the WGA Annual Herbaceous layer, the four categories were 0-10, 11-25, 26-50, and > 50% cover.

Sagebrush Ecosystem Team (SET)
The SET is a cross-programmatic, cross-regional team consisting of US Fish and Wildlife Service sagebrush ecosystem conservation practitioners.Our mission: The SETs mission is to represent and work across US Fish and Wildlife Service programs and partnerships to deliver strategic conservation solutions for the sagebrush biome.Our vision: Our vision is for a healthy, functional sagebrush biome that supports wildlife AND people.Operational approach: The SET thrives on inclusion, partnerships, actionable science and delivery. We believe conservation investments should be transparent, accountable, and focused on strategic investments in common landscape-scale priorities and objectives. We understand the Service is but...

Sagebrush Bird Cores Overlay with RAP Tree
We developed spatial overlays (i.e., “threat matrices”) by combining spatial models of threats (30-m x 30-m pixels) with multispecies cores for sagebrush obligate bird abundance (1-mi2 hexagons). Spatial information was retained in the overlays for three categories of bird core areas (70, 50, and 25%) in the No to Low category of threat classification, and for the 70% bird core area (inclusive of the 50% and 25% cores) for the highest three categories of threat classification (No to Low, Moderate, High, and Very High). For the RAP Tree Canopy layer, the four categories were 0-1, 2-10, 11-20, and > 20% cover.
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.
