BLM GRSG BER: Sagebrush, Pinyon-Juniper, and Conifer Interface (polygon)

Vectorized version of the raster model with the PJ and Conifer interface areas merged across the west. A raster model was developed to identify sagebrush land cover which is in close proximity to conifer land cover, thus suggesting a risk for conifer encroachment. To achieve this end product the following general steps were taken: 1. Extract sagebrush land cover types from GAP/ReGAP data. 2. Extract conifer land cover types (excluding those corresponding to pinyon, juniper, and pinyon-juniper) from GAP/ReGAP data. 3. Reclassify and add these raster datasets. 4. Conduct a focal statistics operation. 5. Multiply the above product by the extracted, reclassified sagebrush raster to identify sagebrush cells adjacent...

ReGAP NW/SW Mosaic for Great Plains Landscape Conservation Cooperative

The Great Plains Landscape Conservation Cooperative (GPLCC, http://www.greatplainslcc.org/) is a partnership that provides applied science and decision support tools to assist natural resource managers conserve plants, fish and wildlife in the mid- and short-grass prairie of the southern Great Plains. It is part of a national network of public-private partnerships—known as Landscape Conservation Cooperatives (LCCs, http://www.fws.gov/science/shc/lcc.html)—that work collaboratively across jurisdictions and political boundaries to leverage resources and share science capacity. The Great Plains LCC identifies science priorities for the region and helps foster science that addresses these priorities to support wildlife...
