In response to the rapid and dramatic hydroecological deterioration of the Rio Grande through Big Bend, the Big Bend Conservation Cooperative (BBCC), a multi-disciplinary group of natural resource agencies, research institutions, and conservation organizations have been organizing and implementing a wide range of river rehabilitation, scientific research activities and climate change initiatives. More recently, the Basin and Bay Expert Science Team, part of an environmental flows initiative by the state of Texas, is using best available science to recommend environmental flow regimes for the major rivers of Texas. Limited understating of the sediment dynamics of the Rio Grande and riparian vegetation change hinders...

The goal of this project is to advance toward completion of Landscape Conservation Design products for the Dos Rios LCD. We will work with the Desert LCC staff, steering committee and working groups as well as the Dos Rios Coordinating Team and interested partners to develop a holistic conservation design. Over this two-year project, we will develop Version 1.0 of a Landscape Conservation Design (“Conservation Blueprint”) for the Dos Rios that includes a shared conservation vision, new analyses to support management planning and approaches, and other components listed below. Methods for development include: work with a broad set of Dos Rios partners to finalize a vision statement; select of landscape-scale indicators;...
