This document presents tasks and milestones for phase 1 of Green River Basin Landscape Conservation Design. Phase 1 is anticipated to be completed by April 2016.
This document describes the why, what, who, and how of the Green River Basin Landscape Conservation Design. The Green River Basin Landscape Conservation Design project (GRB LCD) is an opportunity to think, plan, and act across boundaries and jurisdictions to meet mutual goals for agreed upon conservation targets in the ecosystems of the Green River Basin. This effort is not intended to replace existing science or plans, and is not intended to undermine current management. Rather, through a collaborative process, the project will complement existing projects and partnerships by synthesizing and developing spatial data and information that is consistent and comprehensive across the Basin to provide the landscape-scale...
The Green River Landscape Conservation Design project (GRB LCD) is an effort to identify spatially-explicit conservation opportunities for the Green River Basin ecosystems via a collaborative process. Through the LCD process, stakeholders across the focal region are convened and common management objectives and conservation concerns identified. Existing datasets relevant to these objectives and concerns are identified and analyzed to determine condition and trend of resources and stressors in a spatially-explicit manner. This enables conservation targets and opportunities to be identified in an approach that directly incorporates diverse objectives, perspectives, and experiences across the focal region. The overall...
Our primary goal is to develop a LCD for the GRB that will serve as a model of strategic landscape conservation design that could be applied across multiple geographic focal areas. We aim to co-define the partners’ landscape scale priorities and use them, along with data and decision support tools, to support science-informed decisions by resource managers across the GRB. The project will generate spatially-explicit assessments of the current and potential future condition of ecosystems that support the SR and GN LCC conservation priorities. Important relationships with LCC partners will be strengthened and new partnerships forged for next steps in determining roles for the SR and GN in landscape scale conservation....
The Southern Rockies Landscape Conservation Cooperative (SRLCC) Steering Committee identified three large landscapes where the LCC partnership should develop landscape conservation designs: the Green River Basin, the Upper Rio Grande, and the Four-­‐Corners area of New Mexico, Colorado, Utah and Arizona. Because the Green River Basin encompasses part of the Great Northern LCC (GNLCC) as well, GNLCC will partner in this project, and both cooperatives have agreed that the SRLCC will lead development of the design. A Landscape Conservation Design (LCD) combines geospatial data with environmental information to create maps and models to inform conservation planning to inform biological and hydrological goals through...
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.
