The goal of the Available Science Assessment Project (ASAP) is to synthesize and evaluate the body of scientific knowledge on specific, on-the-ground CAAs to determine the conditions, timeframes, and geographic areas where particular CAAs may be most effective for resource managers. We have derived a methodology that utilizes interviews, a systematic review process, and extensive engagement with natural resource managers and scientists throughout the Northwest Climate Science Center (NW CSC) region. For a test case, we will evaluate the science behind specific fire management actions in national forests in the region.

Chief Washakie lived during the 19th century. He was a noted warrior and became the head chief of the Shoshone Indians. He was known for his wise counsel and allies with the white men. He wanted the best for his people requesting schools, churches, and hospitals on Shoshone lands.

The Planning & Zoning Department is responsible for administration of the County's Development Standards and Regulations, and Small Wastewater Disposal System Regulations. The department issues permits for building construction, septic systems, floodplain development and handles applications for site plans, subdivisions, special use permits, rezoning, and variances.
Presentation from the Landscape-scale Energy Action Plan (LEAP) End User Workshop held on March 13, 2012 in Lakewood Colorado. This meeting was held to solicit information from potential end users of LEAP (biologists, managers, project proponents), in order to better understand how LEAP tools can be built to meet their specific needs.
When the Earth experiences changes in its climate, wildlife respond by moving – species adjust their ranges to track changes in climate, moving out of areas that become too hot or otherwise inhospitable, and moving into areas that become newly hospitable. However, climate change is now proceeding so quickly that it is becoming difficult for species to move fast enough to keep pace. In addition, today’s landscapes feature significant barriers to movement presented by human land uses (e.g., roads, cities, farms). Such is the case in the region around the border of Washington and British Columbia, where increasing development pressure and limited coordination of land and wildlife management across the border pose a...

Lincoln County began the use of GIS in the mid-1990s and aside from the Parcels (Ownership) layer has always been housed within the Planning Department. The Assessor's office has maintained the Parcels layer so as to mirror the taxation database. Along with assistance to the Planning Office, the GIS has been utilized by various offices and departments of Lincoln County including the Lincoln County Commissioners, County Clerk's office for voting and Census, Lincoln County's Office of Homeland Security for E-911 services, County Treasurer, Weed and Pest, County Engineer, Road and Bridge, Landfill, and many others.
The Coalbed Methane-Demineralization Treatment Cost (CBM-DTC) toolbox has been developed to predict the costs associated with treating Powder River Basin (PRB) coalbed methane (CBM) waters based on influent water characteristics, effluent water requirements, and the capabilities of selected technologies. The costs predicted by the toolbox should not be considered to be the exact costs, but approximations.

Maps derived from source data. Reference period: the period 1989 – 2009 for the McKenzie River Basin domain, and 1989 – 2011 for the Upper Deschutes River Basin domain, for which observed historical meteorology is used for model input. T2 scenario: the observed historical (reference period) meteorology is perturbed by adding +2oC to each daily temperature record in the reference period meteorology, and this data is then used as input to the model. T2P10 scenario: the observed historical (reference period) meteorology is perturbed by adding +2oC to each daily temperature record, and +10% precipitation to each daily precipitation record in the reference period meteorology, and this data is then used as input to...

Sweetwater County provides this map service for illustrative purposes only and assumes no liability for actions taken by users based on information shown.
The county's GIS is an integral part of the day-to-day operations. Our goal is to develop and maintain map features and descriptive information that will help support the daily operations and critical decisions of Albany County Government.

The Natrona County Geographic Information Systems Department is dedicated to providing quality spatial information products, helping avoid duplication in the business workflow, and making available a GIS resource for the decision makers, citizens, and departments of Natrona County.
Most of the annual streamflow in the western United States originates as snowfall that has accumulated in the mountains during the winter and early spring. As the snowpack accumulates, hydrologists estimate the runoff that will occur when it melts. Measurements of snow water equivalent at selected manual snow courses and automated SNOTEL sites, along with precipitation, antecedent streamflow, and indices of the El Ni?o / Southern Oscillation are used in computerized statistical and simulation models to prepare runoff forecasts. These forecasts are coordinated between hydrologists in the Natural Resources Conservation Service and the National Weather Service. Unless otherwise specified, all forecasts are for flows...

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Data Release provides derivative statistics of water used by Kansas public-supply systems in 2014. Gallons per capita per day is calculated using self-reported information in the “Part B: Monthly Water Use Summary” and “Part C: Population, Service Connections, and Water Rates” sections of the Kansas Department of Agriculture, Division of Water Resources' (DWR) annual municipal water use report (see appendixes at http://dx.doi.org/10.3133/ds964 for an example of a municipal water use report form.) Percent unaccounted for water is calculated using self-reported information in “Part B: Monthly Water Use Summary” of the DWR’s municipal water-use report. The published statistics from...

The Operational Simplified Surface Energy Balance (SSEBop) model uses the principle of satellite psychrometry to produce spatially explicit actual evapotranspiration (ETa) with remotely sensed and weather data. The temperature difference (dT) in the model is a predefined parameter quantifying the difference between surface temperature at bare soil and air temperature at canopy level. Because dT is derived from the average-sky net radiation based primarily on climate data, validation of the dT estimation is critical for assuring a high-quality ETa product. We used the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data to evaluate the SSEBop dT estimation for the conterminous United States. MODIS data (2008–2017)...
