FY2023R6 SA (Science Applications), in cooperation with project collaborators and watershed stakeholders (watershed coordinators, Montana State University, MTDRC, EPA, conservation districts, TU) created the River Conditions Tool (RCT) to drive conservation actions via real-time stream gage data with predetermined aquatic, riverine, drought management science. Many watersheds Montana, Wyoming, Nebraska, and Colorado are in need of the various conservation science benefits this RCT expansion provides.Continuing this project in new watersheds would be an opportunity to create relationships with new partners and help underserved communities by providing landowners, land/watershed managers, scientists, and recreationalists...

Drought and climate change have been having severe impacts on USFWS water and aquatic resources in the semi-arid western U.S. and the Mountain-Prairie Region (MPR), and a recent study showed that compromised water management capability and flow alteration, often related to drought and climate change, are the greatest threats to National Wildlife Refuges across the region. Better quantitative information is needed on the extent of our region-wide water resources, and current and potential impacts of drought and climate change on water and aquatic habitats. This goal of this study is for FWS and USGS to work cooperatively using the USGS Monthly Water Balance Model to evaluate potential future impacts of climate change...

We propose to evaluate reproductive vital rates of sagebrush songbirds in relation to key aspects of local climate. To accomplish this we will leverage several large existing datasets of nesting observations from over six thousand nests across multiple years and sites, archived weather station data (temperature, precipitation, and relative humidity), and gridded climate datasets (e.g., PRISM). To further examine whether particular landscapes and/or microhabitats may confer more protection in the face of increasingly more extreme weather events (e.g., high temperatures and drought) expected with climate change, we will incorporate habitat data collected remotely and at nests into climatic response models. Finally,...
