GrSageGrouseSevereWinterRange is an ESRI SDE Feature Class showing coverage for severe winter range for Sage Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus). Severe Winter Range is defined as that part of the winter range where 90% of the individuals are located when annual snowpack is at its maximum and/or temperatures are at a minimum in the two worst winters out of ten. This information was derived from field personnel. A variety of data capture techniques were used including drawing on mylar overlays at 1:50,000 scale USGS county mapsheets and implementation of the SmartBoard Interactive Whiteboard using stand-up, real-time digitizing at various scales (Cowardin, M., M. Flenner. March 2003. Maximizing Mapping Resources....
U.S. Cities represents locations for cities within United States with populations of 10,000 or greater (based on Census 2000 figures), all state capitals, and the national capital.
This dataset presents the current potential distribution of burrowing owl (from SW ReGAP) within the context of current and near-term terrestrial intactness and long-term potential for energy development and potential for climate change (4KM reporting units). Current terrestrial intactness is based on current measures of landscape development, fire regime and vegetation impacts, and fragmentation. Near-term intactness includes estimates of urban growth and expansion of invasive vegetation. Long-term potential for energy development is based on areas of potential for wind, solar, and petroleum development derived from multiple sources. Long-term potential for climate change is based on absolute changes in runoff,...

This dataset provides an estimate of water-based recreation travel corridors, based on a combination of wild and scenic rivers, and major rivers selected from NHD that were listed on the BLM rivers website. All reaches of these rivers were selected, as insufficient information exists to determine what segments may or may not be open to recreation. Other areas may be open to water-based recreation travel than are represented in this dataset.

This open-file report presents the results of the USGS Mineral Resources Program activity to compile a national-scale geologic map database to support national and regional level projects, including mineral resource and geo- environmental assessments. The only comprehensive sources of regional- and national-scale geologic maps are state geologic maps with scales ranging from 1:100,000 to 1:1,000,000. Digital versions of these state maps form the core of what is presented here. Because no adequate geologic map exists for the state of Alaska, it is being compiled in regional blocks that also form part of this national database. It is expected that this series will completed by approximately the end of 2007. These...
5th Code HUC reporting units for the Colorado Plateau Ecoregion Used as analytical reporting units for aquatic conservation elements.
Natural Heritage New Mexico used standard photo-interpretive techniques to survey 1,654 digital orthophoto quarter quads (DOQQs) for ground disturbance caused by GPD. The surveyed area covered 7,944,262 ha. To assess accuracy, field observers walked 101, 2 km transects on the Navajo Nation and 50 on the Hopi Reservation, distances of approximately 202 and 100 km, respectively. On the surveyed DOQQs we delineated 40,587 ha of apparent GPD disturbance. We found apparent GPD disturbance that, when confirmed on the ground, will extend the GPD range up to 50 km to the northwest.
Southwest reGAP modeled distribution of Black-footed ferret in the Colorado Plateau ecoregion, USA The Southwest Regional Gap Analysis Project predicted habitat for 819 vertebrate species that reside, breed, or use habitat in the five-state region for a substantial portion of the their life history. The list of species to model was determined by identifying decision rules for taxon inclusion (These rules can be provided upon request). To create the most accurate models possible we are engaging taxa experts to provide a review of these habitat models. These models are based on the concept of Wildlife Habitat Relationships (WHRs). We have defined WHRs as a statement describing resources and conditions present in...
1965 tamarisk point data for the Colorado Plateau ecoregion, USA Over the past 100 years, species of non-native tamarisk (Tamarix spp.) have invaded perhaps hundreds of thousands of acres in riparian zones and desert washes throughout the semi-arid, west and southwest United States (Robinson 1965, Cleverly et al. 1997). Large stands of tamarisk transpire vast amounts of precious water supplies, negatively alter soil chemistry, and out-compete native plant species (Zimmerman 1997, Di Tomaso 1998, Smith et al. 1998, Zavaleta 2000). Tamarisk is a prolific seeder, consummate resprouter, and is fire tolerant. Tamarisk has negative effects on many wildlife species, but it can act as marginal replacement habitat for some...
Difference of Average Winter (Jan-Mar) Temperature (2045-2060 vs 1968-1999) simulated by RegCM3 with GENMOM projections as boundary conditions. Units are degrees Celsius. These data were generated by the regional climate model RegCM3 with boundary conditions from a GCM future climate projections. The data were downscaled statistically by calculating differences (anomalies) between the RegCM3 results with GCM-driven boundary conditions for 1968-99 and those for a future period, in this case 2015-2030. The anomalies were added (temperatures) or multiplied (precipitation) to a climate baseline from PRISM (Parameter-elevation Regressions on Indepenent Slopes Model - prism.oregonstate.edu) data based on historical observations....
LANDFIRE disturbance data are developed to provide temporal and spatial information related to landscape change for determining vegetation transitions over time and for making subsequent updates to LANDFIRE vegetation, fuel and other data. Disturbance data include attributes associated with disturbance year, type, and severity. These data are developed through use of Landsat satellite imagery, local agency derived disturbance polygons, and other ancillary data. DATA SUMMARY: The disturbance data are developed through a multistep process. Inputs to this process include; Landsat imagery and derived NBR (normalized burn ratio) data; polygon data developed by local agencies for the LANDFIRE Refresh effort; fire data...
This dataset provides an estimate of aquatic biodiversity sites, based on protected and conservation lands superimposed on the NHD flowlines dataset. Caution is warrented in interpreting this dataset. While measures of aquatic biodiversity exist, they are based on localized samples that cannot be extrapolated beyond the sampling domain. These measures were not included in this dataset. Instead, it was assumed that areas within TNC Portfolio areas were identified for factors that include high aquatic biodiversity. Furthermore, it is assumed that aquatic biodiversity is higher in protected areas due to stricter controls over land and water management. However, this assumption may not be valid for stream reaches that...
WRPOD is a point coverage created weekly from data in the Utah Division of Water Rights database. It contains water right point of diversion information. This dataset was retrieved from http://www.waterrights.utah.gov/gisinfo/wrcover.asp on 10/31/2011.

This dataset provides a measure of near-term high development, as an integration of several factors representing landscape development. This measure was calculated using a fuzzy logic model, which is represented in graphical format in \Vector\Change_Agents\Development\Documentation\COP_DV_logic_models.pptx This dataset represents the combination of energy, agriculture, urban, and recreation development. Original source data were summarized to 4KM reporting unit, and converted to fuzzy values (rescaled on a -1 to 1 value range) for input to the fuzzy logic model. These data include: utility lines, pipelines (from BLM), oil/gas wells (from BLM), oil/gas well anticipated development (from Holly Copeland 2009), mines...
