We will develop an approach to identify fire refugia in Rocky Mountain ecosystems of the U.S. and Canada then test the function of refugia for biodiversity conservation under current and future climate/fire scenarios. Our products will be designed to inform decision-making in land/easement acquisition, identification of critical areas for maintaining landscape and process connectivity/permeability, and extension of the temporal context for spatial conservation decision making. The approach will be testable for transferability to other locations and ecosystems.FY2013Objectives:The proposed project will provide a science application for focused resource conservation by developing and testing the concept of refugia...

A number of visitor planning frameworks that include visitor information have been developed to assist wilderness area managers in defining and managing for wilderness experiences. This task is made difficult, however, by the fact that significant diversity may exist amongst visitors with respect to their perceptions of acceptable wilderness conditions. One promising approach to managing for diversity is the delineation of a series of opportunity classes or experience zones, defined on the basis of the range of normative standards expressed by visitors. The difficulty encountered in applying this approach is determining what range of standards should be reflected across opportunity classes. This study demonstrates...

Wildlife-based ecotourism has rapidly increased in popularity, especially when featuring large mammals in their natural environment. Researchers have questioned the sustainability of wildlife-based ecotourism because it may compromise the survival and reproduction of focal animals. I investigated the potential spatio-temporal effects of bear viewers on grizzly bears at a proposed bear viewing site along the Fishing Branch River, Yukon. Spatial river use of grizzly bears was largely explained by habituation status. Bears consumed 24% less salmon when viewers were present, posing serious energetic consequences if spatio-temporal compensation does not occur. Dominance status had no measurable effect on bears' fishing...
