The Assessment Unit is the fundamental unit used in the National Assessment Project for the assessment of undiscovered oil and gas resources. The Assessment Unit is defined within the context of the higher-level Total Petroleum System. The Assessment Unit is shown here as a geographic boundary interpreted, defined, and mapped by the geologist responsible for the province and incorporates a set of known or postulated oil and (or) gas accumulations sharing similar geologic, geographic, and temporal properties within the Total Petroleum System, such as source rock, timing, migration pathways, trapping mechanism, and hydrocarbon type. The Assessment Unit boundary is defined geologically as the limits of the geologic...
The Jemez elk herd resides in the Jemez Mountains within the Valles Caldera National Preserve. This herd was originally included in Ungulate Migrations of the Western United States, Volume 2 (Kauffman and others, 2022), but has been updated for this volume owing to the acquisition of new data from 40 additional adult females. The Jemez elk are only partially migratory, with some residents remaining within the Valles Caldera year-round, while others exhibit two distinct seasonal movement patterns. The first movement pattern occurs during midwinter (January–February; arrows labeled 1) when numerous individuals move to the lower elevation slopes of the Valles Caldera, primarily southeast towards Bandelier National...

Cell maps for each oil and gas assessment unit were created by the USGS to illustrate the degree of exploration, type of production, and distribution of production in an assessment unit or province. Each cell represents a quarter-mile square of the land surface, and the cells were then coded to indicate whether the wells included within the cell are predominantly oil-producing, gas-producing, are both oil- and gas-producing, or are dry or the type of production is unknown. The well information was initially retrieved from the IHS Energy Group, PI/Dwights PLUS Well Data on CD-ROM, which is a proprietary, commercial database containing information for most oil and gas wells in the U.S. Cells were developed as a graphic...
The Tesuque Pueblo mule deer herd is primarily nonmigratory, using the foothills of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains (fig. 9). U.S. Highways 84 and 285 are the major routes from Santa Fe to areas in northern New Mexico and southern Colorado, bisecting the Tesuque Pueblo reservation and creating a physical barrier for deer movement. Thus, mule deer in this herd were equipped with GPS collars to identify where mitigation efforts, like installing underpasses or fencing, may help mule deer cross busy highways successfully and reduce the number of wildlife-vehicle collisions. GPS collars were deployed on six mule deer as a part of this study: three females and three males. The female mule deer primarily used the northeastern...

The Tesuque Pueblo elk herd is primarily nonmigratory. The elk in this herd came to the region in the late 1990s and early 2000s, likely because of displacement by large fires in the Jemez Mountains. U.S. Highways 84 and 285 bisect the Tesuque Pueblo, and create a physical barrier for elk movement, which contributes to potential elk-vehicle collisions. Two female elk were fitted with GPS collars to track the habitat and lands used by this herd. The elk seasonally use the western section of the Tesuque Pueblo (fig. 34). Similar to the Tesuque Pueblo mule deer herd (see the “Tesuque Pueblo Mule Deer” section of this report), the annual range of the Tesuque Pueblo elk herd primarily consists of pinyon-juniper woodlands...

These datasets provide early estimates of 2024 fractional cover for exotic annual grass (EAG) species and one native perennial grass species on a weekly basis from April to late June. Typically, the EAG estimates are publicly released within 7-13 days of the latest satellite observation used for that version. Each weekly release contains five fractional cover maps along with their corresponding confidence maps for: 1) a group of 16 species of EAGs, 2) cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum); 3) Field Brome (Bromus arvensis); 4) medusahead (Taeniatherum caput-medusae); and 5) Sandberg bluegrass (Poa secunda). These datasets were generated leveraging field observations from Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Assessment, Inventory,...
