Nov 26, 2013 presentation by Seth Wenger, Trout Unlimited; w/ Dan Isaak, USFS Rocky Mountain Research Station & Jason Dunham, USGS, Forest & Rangeland Ecosystem Science Cntr. The presentation explains an analytic approach that calculates a full distribution of possible outcomes for a species; and permits ready graphical display of uncertainty for individual locations and of total habitat. This is based on the journal publication, "Probabilistic accounting of uncertainty in forecasts of species distributions under climate change," and a bull trout suitable habitat analysis is used to illustrate methods.

This update was provided to FWS on March 21, 2013. The assessment incorporates an evaluation of climate and non-climate threats, and potential interactions among them to evaluate potential bull trout persistence. In summary, it includes the following steps: 1) Map suitable habitat "patches" across the species' range in the conterminous United States; 2) Attribute patches with information on local and climate related threats; 3) Map and attribute migratory habitats for the species and their relationship to "patches;" and 4) model persistence of bull trout in relation to local and climate related threats in patches and migratory habitats.
