The Energy and Environment in the Rocky Mountain Area (EERMA) project is composed of interdisciplinary U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) scientists working to provide land management agencies and decision makers with synthesized information and comprehensive, virtual tools to promote understanding of the trade-offs of energy development. The purpose of the Interactive Energy Atlas is to provide data and decision support tools to visualize and assess the potential effects of energy development on terrestrial/hydrological resources at multiple scales. ScienceBase is being used to compile information and serve the data to EERMA's website, including visualization application, via services. Community Home website: http://my.usgs.gov/eerma/
The SPARROW Decision Support System (SPARROW DSS) provides access to national, regional, and basin-wide SPARROW models ( Spatially Referenced Regressions On Watershed attributes) for water managers, researchers, and the general public. Models are available for a variety of water-quality constituents and time periods. For each model, users can: Map predictions of long-term average water-quality conditions (loads, yields, concentrations) and source contributions by stream reach and catchment Track transport to downstream receiving waters, such as reservoirs and estuaries Evaluate management source-reduction scenarios Overlay land use, shaded relief, street-level data, states, counties, and hydrologic units. Differences...
Protecting the nation’s natural and cultural resources and landscapes is essential to sustaining our quality of life and economy. Native fish and wildlife species depend on healthy rivers, streams, wetlands, forests, grasslands and coastal areas in order to thrive. Managing these natural and cultural resources and landscapes, however, has become increasingly complex. Land use changes and impacts such as drought, wildfire, habitat fragmentation, contaminants, pollution, invasive species, disease and a rapidly changing climate can threaten human populations as well as native species and their habitats. Landscape Conservation Cooperatives (LCCs) are public-private partnerships that recognize these challenges transcend...
