The Crown Managers Partnership (CMP) is developing collaborative management out-comes for three targeted indicators as part of our overall implementation of the Managing for Ecological Integrity Project2. We are strategically focusing on Aquatic Invasive Species Landscape-scale Change, and Climate Change Adaptation, working effectively across jurisdictions; sharing data and utilizing a common science template. Our overall goal is to achieve amplified management out-comes that address these shared conservation threats. Specifically, in the coming year we will advance our management strategies with respect to each of the stressors by; (i) Assimilating on-going work at multiple scales and implement strategic pilot...
The Crown of the Continent Landscape Analysis/Ecological Indicators Project is focused on issues of (i) landscape-scale transboundary GIS data acquisition, integration, and synthesis across the Crown of the Continent Ecosystem; (ii) the production of large-area habitat and connectivity models for select wildlife species that are key indicators of terrestrial and aquatic integrity; and (iii) the dissemination of knowledge, data products, and geospatial tools to managers and collaborators through data portals and outreach programs designed to support effective conservation delivery. Specific activities this year will involve (i) the development of CCE-wide models of grizzly bear (Ursus arctos), wolverine (Gulo gulo),...
The Crown Managers Partnership (CMP) is linking managers, researchers, conservation organizations and regional partnerships to implement a suite of coordinated climate adaptation projects across the transboundary Crown of the Continent Ecosystem (CCE). We are proposing to coordinate and implement separate jurisdictional actions that align to contribute to landscape-­‐scale out-­‐comes. Our Climate Change Adaptation Targets include native salmonids, aquatic invasive species (AIS), terrestrial invasive weeds and whitebark pine. Together with its partners, the CMP is using GNLCC-­‐supported science and Rocky Mountain Partner Forum (RMPF) decision-­‐support tools to identify and prioritize climate change adaptation...
The Crown Managers Partnership (CMP) proposes to utilize our Landscape Analysis data, corresponding geospatial ecological metrics, and our collaborative management constituency to address invasive species, land use change, and subsequent impacts to targeted transboundary species within the Crown of the Continent Ecosystem (CCE)1. In the coming year, we propose to take a crucial step with our Landscape Analysis and utilize the synthesized geo-spatial data for two distinct objectives; i) Develop coordinated cross-jurisdictional management outcomes for a suite of transboundary species using occupancy and abundance models for grizzly bear (Ursus arctos), wolverine (Gulo gulo), cutthroat trout (Salmo clarki), and bull...

ScienceBase brings together the best information it can find about USGS researchers and offices to show connections to publications, projects, and data. We are still working to improve this process and information is by no means complete. If you don't see everything you know is associated with you, a colleague, or your office, please be patient while we work to connect the dots. Feel free to contact sciencebase@usgs.gov.
