The Green River Basin Landscape Conservation Design (GRB LCD) began in 2015, through support from the Great Northern and Southern Rockies Landscape Conservation Cooperatives (LCCs). The Green River Basin encompasses 124,578 km2, spanning sections of Colorado, Wyoming, and Utah. As a landscape of mixed public and private lands with a history of ranching and recreation, as well as a focal point for energy development today, the Green River Basin is complex both socially and ecologically. In the face of this complexity, charting a sustainable forward path that meets both the needs of human communities and maintains conservation priorities into the future will be a challenge.
This website is a collaborative hub for Green River Basin Landscape Conservation Design (GRB LCD) participants to access project information, documents and data. It’s a space for all to contribute ideas, news, project information or files through collaborative discussion, document editing and data sharing tools.

For the Green River Basin Landscape Conservation Design (GRB LCD) assessment, we mapped the vulnerability of occupied Colorado River cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarkii pleuriticus) habitat to climate change for each 12-digit hydrologic unit. Cutthroat trout occupied habitat was mapped from the range-wide status report (Hirsch et. al 2013). Using a vulnerability framework, we defined Sensitivity (S) as the total length of occupied cutthroat trout habitat within HUC12 polygons. The exposure parameter incorporates two climate change metrics, the change in flow timing and change in stream temperature. Exposure is quantified as the square root transformed product of the two climate change metrics. Potential Impact...

The landscape permeability model represents the structural connectivity of sagebrush ecosystem habitat in the Green River Basin (including ~5-10 km boundary outside of the GRB. This model connects patches of habitat, across the landscape using resistances that represent the degree of human modification and slope (energetic costs), using the Multi-Scale Landscape Permeability model (Theobald et al. 2012; Theobald unpublished). We used two metrics: (a) patch importance and (b) betweeness centrality amongst patches. These metrics were summarized for each HUC12. This dataset represents the vulnerability of sagebrush ecosystem permeability to human modification summarized for each HUC12 watershed within the Green River...
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).

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...
The Post Doc and supporting capacities will function in an Extension role and serve as a point of contact providing scientific, technical and training capabilities to Resource Managers to understand, apply, and adapt models and tools for specific landscapes, resources, and management strategies as requested and needed by decision makers. This will be accomplished through delivery and utilization of a variety of data sets, models and decision support tools (including the Colorado Plateau Rapid Ecorregional Assessment) in multiple formats as requested and needed by decision makers. These activities will ensure the utility of the CPREA data and models, as well as the BLM Data Portal, Data Basin, and LC MAP data portals...

This data layer was created by subtracting is2050rclss (representing projections for year 2050 under a2) from is2010reclss (representing projections for year 2010) to create a difference in percent impervious surface layer. Negative values represent an increase in percentage by 1, 2, or 3 levels, 0 indicates no change, and positive values represent a decrease in impervious layers by 1 or 2 levels. Levels refer to the values, 1-7, of is2050rclss and is2010reclss created by reclassifying the source rasters 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. Description from original file: ICLUS v1.3 Estimated Percent Impervious Suface for the Conterminous USA. Pixel values are projected...
