Summary

Raster layers depicting the distribution of possible ecological traps to sage-grouse based on the intersection of conifer cover-classes 1 (Greater than 0 up to 10 percent) and 2 (11 up to 20 percent) with high resistance and resilience, and ecological traps within sage-grouse concentration areas and ecological traps in sage-grouse habitat.
