In May 2014, the GNLCC Steering Committee approved a pilot project to coordinate science-based management across the GNLCC on the connectivity goal. The SC allocated a total of $190k over 3 years. In the third year of the GNLCC Connectivity Project, with $75k support, work towards fulfilling the connectivity goal of the GNLCC fell into the following categories: Facilitation of Connectivity Leadership Team: facilitate regular calls to coordinate ideas and input from the Connectivity Leadership Team for developing an overall GNLCC Connectivity Strategy. The Strategy guides implementation aspects of the project such as developing Focal Connectivity Area Portfolios, creating a pilot of the Connectivity Data Hub, improving...

February 4, 2014 GNLCC Rocky Mountain Partner Forum Meeting
The urgency for drought resilience planning has never been greater. With rapid changes in land use and increasing impacts from climate change, communities need to determine ways to meet their drought planning goals. Montana is forging new ground to join agencies, resource managers and communities to plan for drought impacts and build drought resilience. The State of Montana and the National Drought Resilience Partnership (NDRP)–a collaborative of federal and state agencies, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and watershed stakeholders–are working together to leverage and deliver technical, human and financial resources to help address drought in the arid West.The Missouri Headwaters Basin in southwest Montana...
The Rocky Mountain Partner forum is one of four Partner Forums located in the Great Northern Landscape Conservation Cooperative (GNLCC) geography. The GNLCC brings together managers and stakeholders from around this vast, 300 million-acre landscape to share information and work on mutual priorities. More information about the GNLCC can be found here.The Partner Forums bring together field-level managers, scientists, and other conservation constituents together to address the issues most pertinent to their region through conversation and information sharing. The Rocky Mountain Partner Forum has thus far used this opportunity to focus on cold water aquatic systems and ecological connectivity.

We wanted to notify the Rocky Mountain Partner Forum members that a revision has been made to this report. Please reference this version going forward. As a reminder, this report was a collaborative effort by the Wildlife Conservation Society, EcoAdapt, and The Center for Large Landscape Conservation. Authors Regan Nelson, Molly Cross, Lara Hansen and Gary Tabor worked with U.S. Forest Service managers at the Custer Gallatin National Forest to tailor the framework for decisions about native salmonid conservation. The report presents a framework for using available climate science to set forward-looking conservation goals and select among a menu of climate adaptation strategies.

The Great Northern LCC Steering Committee met in Waterton in May 2014 and selected connectivity as a priority shared landscape objective and decided to support this Ecological Connectivity Prioritization Pilot Project. Connectivity is the second of the GNLCC’s four strategic goals: Conserve a permeable landscape with connectivity across aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems, including species movement, genetic connectivity, migration, dispersal, life history, and biophysical processes. This goal is impacted by the threats of conflicting land use and development and climate change and is a goal that requires a large collaborative effort. This report is prelimenary. It summarizes work done on this project over the past...
The project will establish contact with interested parties in each tribe or first nation within the Crown of the Continent to collect information on all relevant activities and research regarding climate and adaptive management within each tribal nation. We will coordinate a meeting of all interested tribal contacts and coordinate tribal activities with other efforts in the Crown including the Crown Managers’ Partnership, the Crown of the Continent Conservation Initiative, and the Crown Roundtable Adaptive Management Initiative.

Advancing land and resource conservation in the Rocky Mountains requires bringing together the wealth of existing organizations, partnerships, universities, and individuals. By joining together, conservation practitioners can identify and advance common priorities, develop strategies and gain efficiencies in addressing landscape stressors such as climate change,invasive species and land development, and understand the eco-âgeographic context of local management activities and decisions on regional outcomes. Partnerships are needed to identify andprioritize research and science needs and conservation actions, bridge the gap between science and land management actions, and improve capacity by coordinating conservation...
On January 7, 2014, Dr. Francis Zwiers presented an overview of the Fifth IPCC Assessment Report.
Water is essential to our health, economy and quality of life. A scarcity of water has always characterized life in the West, and with increasing demands and limited supplies, smart and efficient water use is key. One answer is to develop conservation and drought mitigation strategies that start on the ground with full community participation and integrate high level tools available from state and federal partners.The National Drought Resiliency Partnership (NDRP) is a collaborative group of federal agencies working together to implement President Obama’s Climate Action Plan. In partnership with the Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation (DNRC) and other state and local collaborators, the Missouri...
As always, a variety of excellent work is being carried out across the Rocky Mountain landscape and we want to highlight some upcoming events, current projects, and relevant resources for Rocky Mountain Partner Forum members. Our partners are working on a slew of issues and building coalitions around watershed restoration, habitat connectivity, and species health to name but a few. Most of you are carrying out or are connected to much of this work, and we encourage you to reach out to folks involved in other projects that are of interest to you. We would love to feature your work through the Rocky Mountain Partner Forum newsletter and website so please get in touch!
Spring has come to the Rockies and with it some recent meetings of collaboratives that are moving landscape conservation forward in the region. In this installment of the Great Northern LLC Rocky Mountain Partner Forum newsletter we have updates on some recent collaborative meetings and the work they are planning for the future. In highlighting these collaboratives we hope to inform, educate, and inspire. This newsletter is only a snapshot of the work being carried out on this landscape. If you are interested in learning more about, or connecting to, any of the featured initiatives we hope that you will reach out to one another. We would also love to feature your work through the Rocky Mountain Partner Forum newsletter...
While winter is nearing its end, conservation efforts of our partners across the Rocky Mountain landscape of the Great Northern LCC are pushing forward. With major shifts in national policy, our local efforts are more important than ever.The aim of this newsletter is to foster communication among conservation practitioners to facilitate landscape-scale conservation throughout the Great Northern LCC. If you read about an intriguing project or are interested in an upcoming meeting, get in touch. We love to showcase projects, resources, upcoming meetings, and recently-released reports from our partners so please get in touch or have friends and colleagues sign up for our newsletter.
In this newsletter for the Great Northern LCC Rocky Mountain Partner Forum (RMPF), we’re sharing updates on two regional projects: one focused on climate adaptation and cold water systems and the other investigating and facilitating landscape connectivity. There are also two upcoming meetings and ways to share your work with the Partner Forum!We hope you find these updates educational, and please do let us know if you have suggestions for content, work to share, or would just like to reach out and connect. We look forward to deepening the ties of the Rocky Mountain Partner Forum.
