Application of Comprehensive Assessment to Support Decisionmaking and Conservation Actions This is a collaborative, two-part project to compile and analyze resource data to support WLCI efforts. Part 1 entails directing data synthesis and assessment activities to ensure that they will inform and support the WLCI LPDTs and Coordination Team in their conservation planning efforts, such as developing conservation priorities and strategies, identifying priority areas for conservation actions, evaluating and ranking conservation projects, and evaluating spatial and ecological relations between proposed habitat projects and WLCI priorities. In FY2014, we helped the Coordination Team complete the WLCI Conservation Action Plan and BLM’s annual report, and we provided maps and other materials to assist with ranking...

Future changes in seasonal temperatures, and the timing and amount of rain and snowfall, may result in significant ecosystem shifts that affect wildlife species. Information on the magnitude and rate of potential changes in climate are needed for understanding and developing responses to the potential future impacts of these changes. For example, Wyoming land managers require future climate information to inform the development of adaptive management plans for the species and ecosystems they manage. The goal of this project is to develop datasets of potential future climate and vegetation changes for southwestern Wyoming that can help... Categories: Data; Types: ScienceBase Project; Tags: Baseline Synthesis, Science, Science Project Effectiveness Monitoring - Soil Chemistry: Relationships between Energy Exploration/Development and Salinity of Soils and Waters Effectiveness Monitoring Effectiveness monitoring was implemented to evaluate the efficacy of habitat treatments and to broadly assess the regional effects of conservation, mitigation, and other management activities coordinated through this initiative. Work has included collecting data associated with past and current habitat treatments (for example, herbicide treatments in sagebrush) to: • assess their effectiveness in meeting WLCI habitat conservation goals, and • help guide the design of future habitat treatments and Best Management Practices. Effectiveness Monitoring included measuring vegetation and soil responses to treatments, developing methods for using remotely sensed estimates of productivity to evaluate...
