GIS data in Data Basin showing relationship between major soil types and recent pinyon pine dieback in the southwest.
The Colorado Plateau Rapid Ecoregional Assessment (REA) website has links to the components of the final report. Appendix C, titled Wildlife Species Conservation Elements, contains analyses and maps of species distribution and vulnerability to change agents (potential for change in near term and long term). There are also additional sage-grouse and tamarisk inserts in the appendices section of the report. Data from the report, including maps of species distributions, are shared through the Colorado Plateau REA Data Portal . Data portal maps are downloadable and can be viewed through map services and ArcGIS.com. Analyses were completed for the following species: Black-footed ferret (Mustela nigripes) Desert...

From USFWS service description: "This data service identifies, in general, the areas where final critical habitat exist for species that are endangered or threatened. Special protections and/or restrictions are possible in areas where federal funding, permits, licenses, authorizations or actions occur or are required. Critical habitat are areas considered essential for the conservation of a listed species. These areas provide notice to the public and land managers the importance of these areas to the conservation of the species." The data can be downloaded in a shapefile, viewed on the Fish and Wildlife Service's map viewer, or accessed through a web service. It's also possible to view the data through the ScienceBase...

The Nature Conservancy's Priority Conservation Areas and Targets can be viewed through their interactive map viewer or downloaded as a shapefile (select the download button in the upper right corner of the interactive map viewer). Description of data from http://uspriorityareas.tnc.org/: "The Nature Conservancy has been a leader in spatial conservation planning for many years. The primary planning tool used by the Conservancy for landscape-scale conservation planning over the past decade has been Ecoregional Assessments. Our United States Ecoregional Assessments identify priority areas for conservation within the United States. This includes data from 67 Ecoregional Assessments, which identified over 9,000 conservation...

The Colorado Plateau Rapid Ecoregional Assessment (REA) website has links to the the final report. Appendix B, titled Ecological Systems Conservation Elements, focuses on ecological systems (types of vegetation communities). It contains descriptions of the models used to answer management questions and the mapped results. The results are also are shared through the Colorado Plateau REA Data Portal . Data portal maps are downloadable and can be viewed through map services and ArcGIS.com. Ecological Systems Management Questions addressed by the REA report: MQ C1. Where are existing vegetation communities of interest present and what is their current status? MQ C2. Where are vegetative communities vulnerable...

The Western Native Fishes Committee's gallery in Data Basin contains 272 downloadable GIS layers showing fish habitat (current and historical) in the western U.S.
This data set represents the extent, approximate location and type of wetlands and deepwater habitats in the United States and its Trust Territories. These data delineate the areal extent of wetlands and surface waters as defined by Cowardin et al. (1979). Certain wetland habitats may be excluded because of the limitations of aerial imagery as the primary data source used to detect wetlands. These habitats include seagrasses or submerged aquatic vegetation that are found in the intertidal and subtidal zones of estuaries and near shore coastal waters. Some deepwater reef communities (coral or tuberficid worm reefs) have also been excluded from the inventory. These habitats, because of their depth, go undetected by...

LandScope America is an interactive map viewer that brings together maps, data, photos and stories for the purpose of providing tools and resources for conservation planning and decision-making. The map viewer displays layers for themes including: protected areas, conservation priorities, threats, plants and animals, ecosystems, energy and recreation. This web page contains a list of the sources for the data layers in the map viewer: http://www.landscope.org/about/guidelines/#Sources

Global circulation models (GCM) of future climates predict extreme change for the Southwestern United States (Solomon and others, 2007; Diffenbaugh and others, 2008). Temperatures are projected to increase 3.5–4°C within the next 60–90 years while precipitation is projected to decline by 5–20 percent (Seager and others, 2007). The coalescing effect of these changes in temperature and precipitation in this already arid region will profoundly affect the distributions and viability of plant and animal populations. Region-wide ecosystem processes and system dynamics will be especially sensitive to relatively small shifts in climate in the arid and semi-arid environments (Millennium Ecosystem Assessment, 2005). Managers...
