Documents data sources and process steps for creating Phase 2 Spatial Designs for the Crown of the Continent Landscape Conservation Design
The purpose of this strategic conservation framework is to articulate the rationale, approach, and priorities for the Great Northern Landscape Conservation Cooperative (GNLCC) that reflects the unique geography and regional natural resource issues. The information presented in this document is summarized from background research on existing landscape initiatives (place-, issue-, or species-based) and other regionally summarized ecological and landscape information relevant to the Great Northern geography. The conservation targets identified in this document are based on research with conservation partners and ongoing landscape-scaled initiatives. We collected and reviewed over 50 documents that may be relevant...
Prior to the exercise, participants were provided with (gnlcc_framework_final_small.pdf, GNLCC_Priorities_Crosswalk_Exercise1_Goals_Stressors_Targets_1-12-16b.pptx) which includes the guidance from the Steering Committee (Fall 2015 meeting, Missoula) to “narrow GNLCC priorities” through an “improved process focusing on needs and outcomes”. Staff initiated a process to cross-walk sets of GNLCC principles (e.g., Goals, Stressors, Targets) to parse and refine the potential array of priorities (see .pptx for more detail). The process included a series of polls conducted in real time during a live Adobe Connect session. Participants were given time to support their choices using text-based chat boxes and phone connections....
The Great Northern Landscape Conservation Cooperative (GNLCC) encompasses over 280 million acres, includes parts of 6 states and 2 Canadian provinces, and must address issues that overlap with over 30 management and research entities. The data management framework will include options to deal with very large datasets as well as treatment of local data collection and project tracking efforts. The goal of the Landscape Conservation Cooperative process is to help resource managers address landscape-scale stressors. The issues facing these managers include habitat fragmentation, genetic isolation, spread of invasive species, and water scarcity, as well as how these issues are accelerated by climate change. Addressing...

This document is a Template for a Data Management Plan (DMP). DMPs are required for all science projects funded by Great Northern Landscape Conservation Cooperative. Completed DMPs will be stored in each project's Community under LC MAP/Great Northern Landscape Conservation Cooperative/GNLCC Supported Science. Because DMPs are intended to be dynamic and likly to evolve over the course of a science project, multiple versions may be created for any project. PI's can download this version to use as a Template for their individual submission. From the Great Northern Landscape Conservation Cooperative Information Management, Delivery, and Sharing Standards (Revised FY15; GNLCC_DataMgt_Sharing_policy_FY15_9-23-15.pdf):...
The Sage Steppe Partner Forum (SSPF) is requesting funding for technical support services to upgrade and enhance the Sage Steppe Partner Forum wiki and engage partners in coordinated sage-steppe conservation planning and implementation. SSPF will enhance communication resources to better serve biome-wide coordinated conservation implementation as four LCCs and partners initiate the Sagebrush Conservation Science Network.
The purpose of the Great Northern Landscape Conservation Cooperative (GNLCC) Science Plan is to provide a framework and explain the process for identifying science priorities in the context of landscape conservation which drives annual workplans. The GNLCC Science Plan builds off the Governance Charter and Strategic Conservation Framework (Chambers et al. 2013) to achieve landscape goals through an adaptive management approach. The GNLCC Science Plan describes: ● ecological relationships among conservation targets, threats, and actions as they relate to overall goals and vision ● a process for setting desired condition and quantifiable objectives for conservation targets and their use as a metric for progress ●...
For landscape-level analyses to succeed, researchers need data portals and catalogs to interact at many levels. This way users can discover and use distributed science products.
Informing Adaptation Strategies for Maintaining Landscape Connectivity for Northern Rockies Wildlife
The U.S. Northern Rocky Mountains support a large number of native wildlife species, and survival of these populations depends on connected landscapes to support current migration and dispersal, as well as future shifts in species’ ranges. However, habitat fragmentation and loss threaten these connections. Land and wildlife managers across the U.S. are faced with decisions focused on reducing risks, like those from habitat fragmentation, to wildlife, ecosystems, and landscapes. Establishing connections between natural landscapes is a frequently recommended strategy for these managers to help wildlife adapt to changing conditions. Working in partnership with state and federal resource managers and private land...

1. Guide near-term focus for GNLCC resource allocations given the broad array of stressors, drivers, targets, geographies, and partners/partnerships. a. low hanging fruit (most approachable), greatest need, or toughest nut? b. focus on areas where progress is in motion or underserved areas/targets The Steering Committee and Advisory Team expressed support for following the ‘Shared Landscape Outcomes’ model pairing one stressor with a goal or (conservation target). The 2 existing are “Connectivity & Land-Use Change” and “Aquatic Integrity and Invasives” 2. Create and provide longer-range guidance for Steering Committee members to understand LCC role for their organization, elucidate...
Future landscape-scale analyses will rely on more and larger datasets, more computationally intense models, and an ever increasing rate of data inputs and outputs. Integration activities must keep pace with these needs.
