Our objective is to develop improved integration of data and models of soil and ecosystem processes at the regional scale in order to better quantify change in response disturbances, particularly drought. Specifically, we synthesize existing and generate new datasets of soil properties of soils form the Upper Colorado River Basin region of the Western US. Data types include geospatial databases and maps; soil physical, chemical, and biological datasets; soil hydrologic data; stream and river chemistry associated with regional mapping of soils; model input parameterizations and output data.
The Nevada Water Science Center (NVWSC) is committed to providing reliable, unbiased scientific information about Nevada's water resources to the public, cooperators, and stakeholders. To provide this information, we operate widespread data collection networks as well as conduct water-science research covering a wide range of scientific issues throughout Nevada and adjacent states.
The mission of the U.S. Geological Survey Colorado Water Science Center is to be the principal source of timely, high-quality science information on Colorado’s water resources, and to be a leader in providing an understanding of how those resources relate to the people and environment of the state. This will help planners, managers, and others to make the decisions necessary for the wise use of these limited and shared resources.
We aim to create a user-friendly, online tool that will provide predictions about the upcoming year’s grassland and rangeland productivity for the southwestern U.S. This tool will allow land managers, policy makers, ranchers, scientists, and the general public to visualize and forecast grassland production for the upcoming season. The tool will integrate data from remote sensing, climate, and modeling techniques and, on a county-by-county scale, will provide updated forecasts every two weeks. This tool will have many uses, including for those who need to make decisions about wildlife, livestock, restoration, and fire.
