This dataset contains the predicted probability of occurrence for modeled distributions of mountain whitefish. The species distribution model incorporated metrics describing the topography, hydrology, land use, climate, and biogeography of the basin to model predicted probability of occurrence.
This HTML document provides links to data and models on 19 plant species having formal designation under the Endangered Species Act (ESA), or identified as of concern (i.e., “sensitive”) in the Colorado Plateau by collaborating Federal and state agencies, principally the Bureau of Land Management, Utah (BLM), the State of Utah Department of Natural Resources (UT-DNR) and Division of Wildlife Resources (UT-DWR), and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Utah (USFWS). The modelling and interpretation domain for Phase I of this project is restricted to the Colorado Plateau, as defined ecologically and spatially, and as used in the BLM’s Colorado Plateau Rapid Ecoregional Assessment (CP-REA).

Soil water dynamic is a crucial factor for understanding water-limited, arid to semiarid ecosystems (Porporato et al. 2002, Loik et al. 2004, Lauenroth and Bradford 2006), which cover c. 30% of global land area (Peel et al. 2007). The spatial and temporal patterns of available water, i.e., the amount of soil water that is extractable by plants, is a major determinant of aboveground net primary production and plant functional composition (Noy-Meir 1973, Sala et al. 1988, Sala et al. 1997). Climatic conditions including precipitation, temperature and potential evapotranspiration (PET), which are frequently summarized in climate diagrams (Fig. 1a, Walter and Lieth 1967), explain general patterns of soil water availability...

The Gunnison Climate Working Group is a chartered partnership of 14 public and private organizations in Colorado’s Upper Gunnison Basin. The Southern Rockies LCC funded The Nature Conservancy to complete a comprehensive vulnerability assessment identifying species and ecosystems most at risk from climate change. The assessment included a set of habitat adaptation strategies for priority species, such as the Gunnison sage-grouse. As a final product, local demonstration projects were designed and installed.
Global circulation models (GCM) of future climates predict extreme change for the Southwestern United States (Solomon and others, 2007; Diffenbaugh and others, 2008). Temperatures are projected to increase 3.5–4°C within the next 60–90 years while precipitation is projected to decline by 5–20 percent (Seager and others, 2007). The coalescing effect of these changes in temperature and precipitation in this already arid region will profoundly affect the distributions and viability of plant and animal populations. Region-wide ecosystem processes and system dynamics will be especially sensitive to relatively small shifts in climate in the arid and semi-arid environments (Millennium Ecosystem Assessment, 2005). Managers...

Northern Arizona University will study how forest treatment practices and climate change may impact water balance across the Kaibab Plateau and critical habitats in lower elevations of the Grand Canyon. The project will include use of a forest landscape simulation model to examine how fuel treatments and prescribed burning will affect the resilience of forest ecosystems. The project will also address whether those activities would benefit the conservation of downstream riparian habitat by mitigating anticipated changes in the stream flow and water quality.The model will assist managers in developing, adaptation strategies for the conservation of riparian habitats by testing a range of realistic fuel treatment and...

This layer represent the direction of housing density change in 2050 as compared to 2010. It was created by substracting bhc2050 from bhc2010. Negative values represent an increase in housing density (e.g. shifts from '2' in year 2010 to '3' in year 2050). 0 indicates no change. Positive values would indicate a shift to a lower (less dense) category (e.g. moving from '3' to '2') ICLUS v1.3 Housing Density for the Conterminous USA. The data are classified into descriptive categories for general analytic and cartographic purposes. 99 = Commercial/Industrial 4 = <0.25 acres/unit = "urban" 3 = 0.25 to 2 acres/unit = "suburban" 2 = 2 to 40 acres/unit = "exurban" 1 = >40 acres/unit = "rural Climate and land-use change...

This file represents a reclassified raster such that 0%=1, 0.01-9.5%=2, 9.5-19%=3, 19-29%=4, 29-38%=5, 38-48%=6, 48-58%=7. Original: ICLUS v1.3 Estimated Percent Impervious Suface for the Conterminous USA. Pixel values are projected estimates of percent imperviousness. These forecasts were statistically modeled based on the relationship between housing density and imperviousness using data from the U.S. Census Bureau and the 2001 National Land Cover Database. Climate and land-use change are major components of global environmental change with feedbacks between these components. The consequences of these interactions show that land use may exacerbate or alleviate climate change effects. Based on these findings it...

The Forests to Faucets project uses a GIS to model and map the land areas across the United States that are most important to surface drinking water sources, as well as to identify forested areas important to the protection of drinking water and areas where drinking water supplies might be threatened by development, insects and diseases, and wildland fire. The results of this assessment provide information that can identify areas of interest for protecting surface drinking water quality. The spatial dataset can be ncorporated into broad-scale planning and can help identify areas for further local analysis. In addition it can be incorporated into existing decision support tools that currently lack spatial data on...

Information on the sources of sediment production and amount is necessary to better understand the relationship between landscape-scale ecosystem drivers (fire, large-scale invasive species removal, recreation, oil and gas development, and grazing) and sediment loading in rivers, streams, and reservoirs. An improved understanding of the sources of sediment production and the contribution of each source to total sediment load would enable resource managers to better locate and design conservation strategies to reduce sediment loading, and improve water quality, native fish habitats, and upland vegetation cover.This project will conduct an erosion and sediment supply analysis in a portion of the Upper Green River...
