This polygon data set represents all sage-grouse Priority Areas for Conservation (PACs) identified in the 2013 Greater Sage-Grouse Conservation Objectives Team (COT) Report. PACs represent areas identified as essential for the long-term conservation of the sage-grouse. The COT determined that the PACs are key for the conservation of the species range wide. PAC polygons were provided by States. This data set has merged all State PACs together and cleaned up the polygons by filling in small gaps along state borders, closing any holes less than 10 acres, and removing any polygons less than 10 acres. This cleaning reduced noise in the data. PACs were then split by population using the ‘GRSG_2015_USFWS_StatusReview_Populations’...
This data set represents modeled Greater Sage-Grouse (GRSG) Breeding Habitat or Breeding Distribution. Models, built with collaboration from WAFWA, are meant to be used as metrics for subsequent risk analyses and general GIS queries. Modeled data developed by US FWS Kevin Doherty et al. 2015. Model outputs clipped to Current Occupied Range (US FWS 2015). These data were thresholded at 0.65. Values of 1 represent probabilities >= 0.65, while values of 0 represent probabilities < 0.65. GRSG Breeding Habitat models built within Management Zones because wide variation exists in occupied habitats across the range, and risks to sage-grouse vary across Management Zones. Lek data assembled by WAFWA was used to develop...

This data set represents Greater Sage-Grouse Current Range to be used in work for the USFWS 2015 Status Review for the Greater Sage-Grouse. Current Range is defined as areas believed to be currently occupied. Therefore this data set represents occupied habitat for Greater Sage-Grouse. Current range for this data set was created by compiling the following data and information Schroeder et al. 2004 current range Priority Areas for Conservation (PACs) identified in the Conservation Objectives Team (COT) Report, 2013. One small polygon from the Schroeder et al. 2004 current range was removed as it was determined that it no longer represents current range. Determination made from information from Oregon Department...

This data set represents modeled Greater Sage-Grouse (GRSG) Breeding Habitat or Breeding Distribution. Modeled data developed by US FWS Kevin Doherty et al. 2015. Model outputs clipped to Current Occupied Range (US FWS 2015). GRSG Breeding Habitat models built within Management Zones because wide variation exists in occupied habitats across the range, and risks to sage-grouse vary across Management Zones. Lek data assembled by WAFWA was used to develop the breeding habitat model. Detailed model outputs were reviewed by biologist from each state, including statistical tables of model fit and how predictions aligned with landscapes local biologist work in. A probabilistic model of occupied breeding habitat was developed...

This data set was updated with WY updated historic range from the "WyomingHistoricRange2014.shp" data provided by Tom Christiansen on March 4th, 2016. The Sage-Grouse Coordinator, Sage-Grouse GIS Analyst, and several Wyoming Game and Fish Department biologists updated the 2004 version of Wyoming’s sage-grouse historic and current occupied habitat maps.

This data set represents greater sage-grouse populations to be used in work for the US Fish and Wildlife (USFWS) 2015 Status Review for the greater sage-grouse. Populations do not represent occupied habitat. Population polygons are meant to coarsely identify areas of occupation based on encircling groups of leks. Boundaries taken from BLM/WAFWA revised population boundaries (‘COT_SG_Populations_2014_WAFWA_UT’ data layer). The original data layer was slightly modified for the USFWS 2015 Status Review. Modifications include dissolving populations across State boundaries and merging several polygons together. Five additional polygons were added to the data set including four polygons in Utah and one polygon in Canada....

This data set represents modeled Greater Sage-Grouse (GRSG) Relative Abundance or Population Index categorized into 10% relative percent bins. Modeled data developed by US FWS Kevin Doherty et al. 2015. Model outputs clipped to Current Occupied Range (US FWS 2015). GRSG Relative Abundancemodels built within Management Zones because wide variation exists in occupied habitats across the range, and risks to sage-grouse vary across Management Zones. Lek data assembled by WAFWA was used to develop the Relative Abundancemodel. Detailed model outputs were reviewed by biologist from each state, including statistical tables of model fit and how predictions aligned with landscapes local biologist work in.A model was developed...
This community is managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. It provides public data associated with the sagebrush ecosystem and directly contributes toward an interagency catalog for the U.S. Department of the Interior Rangeland Fire Secretarial Order.
Note that MZ III probability models (occupied breeding habitat) and relative percent population models include bi-state populations. Please see files for MZ III that exclude the bi-state populations.

This data set identifies Management Zones to be used in work for the USFWS 2015 Status Review for the greater sage-grouse. Management Zone boundaries in this data set were slightly adjusted from the 2006 WAFWA Management Zone data set. Outer boundaries were adjusted to include all PACs and Populations from the 'GRSG_2015_USFWS_StatusReview_Populations' data set. Management Zone boundaries dividing populations were adjusted to match Population boundaries from the 'GRSG_2015_USFWS_StatusReview_Populations' data set. See the Supplemental Information for more details.

Modeled data developed by US FWS Kevin Doherty et al. 2015. Model outputs clipped to Current Occupied Range (US FWS 2015).
