Projecting the Future Encroachment of Woody Vegetation into Grasslands of the Northern Great Plains by Simulating Climate Conditions and Possible Management Actions Maintaining the native prairie lands of the Northern Great Plains (NGP), which provide an important habitat for declining grassland species, requires anticipating the effects of increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations and climate change on the region’s vegetation. Specifically, climate change threatens NGP grasslands by increasing the potential encroachment of native woody species into areas where they were previously only present in minor numbers. This project used a dynamic vegetation model to simulate vegetation type (grassland, shrubland, woodland, and forest) for the NGP for a range of projected future climates and relevant management scenarios. Comparing results of these simulations illustrates...

Specifically, this project is intended to address elements 1b) of a broader Designing Sustainable Landscapes project: 1. Assess the current capability of habitats in the North Atlantic LCC to support sustainable wildlife populations a. Select representative terrestrial wildlife species b. Develop habitat relationship models for representative species c. Predict capability of current landscape to support populations of representative species...
