Exposure (vulnerability) index for the future time period (2061-2080) representing projected climate conditions from the Meteorological Research Institute's Coupled Atmosphere-Ocean General Circulation Model, version 3, and the rcp85 emissions scenario. The exposure model uses LANDFIRE vegetation data and Worldclim climate data .The raster values represent exposure scores for the corresponding vegetation type. The modeled vegetation types can be spatially associated with the exposure values by overlaying them with the "landfire_veg_sw_300m.tif" raster.Exposure values represent where the location falls in climate space relative to its recent historical distribution:5 (core 5% of historical climate space); 10 (5 -...
This survey was used in a study on the use of scientific information in public natural resource management planning and decision-making. This survey was intended to help staff at the Southwest Climate Science Center (SWCSC), and others in the research community, gain a more specific understanding of the kinds of decisions made by public natural resource officials and to identify how scientific information, and in particular climate information, is obtained and applied in National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) natural resource decision-making processes. Aside from questions and associated information, the survey document contains page logic describing actions taken in a web-based environment.

Derived from the LANDFIRE Existing Vegetation data (http://www.landfire.gov/vegetation.php). This dataset has been resampled from the 30 m resolution of the source data to 300 m. The resampling was done using a majority filter so that cells in the new raster represent the most common type from the original raster. The main use for this dataset is in conjunction with Southwest Forest Vulnerability Index rasters, which contain the modeled vegetation exposure scores for several projected future climate scenarios. This raster can be used as an index of the vegetation type being modeled at each location.
On April 16-17, 2022, 41 people participated in an online workshop sponsored by the US Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) to gather information to inform a conservation introduction (CI) decision framework. The geographic scope of this workshop was the Pacific Northwest (Idaho, Oregon, and Washington).CIs are translocations of populations or species outside their known historical distributions for conservation purposes. Most frequently this action is considered when an endangered species is viewed as unable to recover within its known historical range (managed relocation) but may also involve moving species to new locations to replace ecological functions (ecological replacement) (IUCN 2013). Further, given that suitable...
Exposure (vulnerability) index for the baseline time period (1950-2000) representing historical conditions. The exposure model uses LANDFIRE vegetation data and Worldclim climate data . This raster represents the baseline exposure values from the Worldclim "Current" time period (1950-2000). There were four climate scenarios evaluated under the Southwest Climate Change Vulnerability project (MG - RCP 45; MG - RCP 85; MI - RCP 45; MI - RCP 85). Because the model is fit on the four scenarios independently, there are minor differences in the baseline exposure values. This raster simplifies the outputs by combining the four baseline exposure rasters, and can be used with any of the projected futures.The raster values...

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s (USFWS) decision support framework for conservation introductions (framework) aims to foster inclusive, transparent, and defensible decision making about when to use conservation introductions as a strategy for preventing species extirpation or extinction, re-establishing an ecological function lost through extinction, or directing ecosystem change toward a state that better supports conservation goals. The framework is being developed for use by the USFWS in Hawaii, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, American Samoa, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of Palau and the Republic of the Marshall Islands. A wide range of partners...

On May 1, 2023, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service released a draft version of the USFWS Decision Support Framework for Conservation Introductions in the Pacific Region. As a step in reviewing this draft, the 46 federally recognized Native American Tribes in the Pacific Region were invited to attend a stand-alone session led by USFWS (not under this contract). Additionally, 125 agency, university and NGO members in the Pacific Northwest (Idaho, Oregon, Washington) and over 250 individuals from the Pacific Island state (Hawaiʻi), territories (American Samoa, Guam, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands) and Freely Associated States (Republic of the Marshall Islands, Palau, Federated States of Micronesia) were...
