The purpose of this strategic conservation framework is to articulate the rationale, approach, and priorities for the Great Northern Landscape Conservation Cooperative (GNLCC) that reflects the unique geography and regional natural resource issues. The information presented in this document is summarized from background research on existing landscape initiatives (place-, issue-, or species-based) and other regionally summarized ecological and landscape information relevant to the Great Northern geography. The conservation targets identified in this document are based on research with conservation partners and ongoing landscape-scaled initiatives. We collected and reviewed over 50 documents that may be relevant...
We propose to expand the collaborative, landscape-scale, climate change planning initiated last year to increase management application in the Rocky Mountain region. We will assess and build upon the results of the previous year’s work on climate change adaptation planning for cold-water fish and their habitats by either providing further assistance for implementation, or repeating the planning process for another natural resource priority conservation target (depending on the needs and interests of the partners involved). This project will be implemented through the Rocky Mountain Partner Forum as a way to create a learning network through which partners can share information about emerging practices and strategies...
We propose to work with the Rocky Mountain Partnership Forum to expand upon the successful approach applied in the first two years of this project to help managers incorporate climate change science into their natural resource management decisions for a new resource of interest that will be chosen by the Rocky Mountain Partner Forum members. This project will be implemented through the Rocky Mountain Partner Forum to share information with and among partners about emerging climate science and strategies for integrating climate change into natural resource management decisions in the region. We will also support the Rocky Mountain Partner Forum Leadership Team as it seeks to formalize the Forum and set directions...
In May 2014, the GNLCC Steering Committee approved a pilot project to coordinate science-based management across the GNLCC on the connectivity goal. In this second year, we propose to (1) expand the information in the connectivity data atlas developed in year 1 (to refine existing information and incorporate avian connectivity, aquatic connectivity, connectivity for ecosystem processes, and additional landscape stressors, including climate change); (2) conduct regional workshops to refine the connectivity implementation strategy developed in year 1 and explore actions for climate change adaptation; and (3) follow up on actions identified at the April 2015 managers workshop and approved by the GNLCC Steering Committee.
We propose to facilitate collaborative landscape-scale climate change planning among diverse partnerships in the Rocky Mountains sub-region of the GNLCC. By synthesizing and integrating best-available climate science research and creating a sustained engagement process, we will improve our collective understanding of the climate change vulnerabilities of widely valued natural resources in the GNLCC, help managers develop a menu of options for managing those resources as climate changes, and identify priority science needs for incorporating climate change into natural resource management decisions. This project will create a regional forum for organizational learning and sharing about integrating climate change into...
