| Description: | 1.Snow Refugia Modeling (CU) a. Perform fine scale (approx. 250 meter)hyrologic modeling using the Distributed Hydrology Soil Vegetation Model (DHSVM) for two subâ¿regions of appproximately 1000 km2, or for similar areal coverage distributed within the core region of interest for wolverine habitat. Choices of specific subâ¿regions will be done in consultation with Dr. Steve Torbit of FWS. The following simulations are proposed: i.Historic (observed) simulation with for the period 2000â¿2015 ii. Baseline Simulation (may be identical to (i) if â¿¿deltaâ¿ method is used). iii. Future simulations for midâ¿21st century (nominally 2014â¿2070) for high and low rates of climate change. Additional simulation for medium rate of change if time and resources permit. b. Evaluation of historic (observed) simulation results against MODIS(satellite remote sensed) snowcover, and if appropriate SNOTEL and streamgage measurements within the subâ¿regions that are modeled. c. Analysis of simulation outputs for the presence of absence of â¿¿snow refugiaâ¿ â¿â¿areas that preferentially retain snow under climate change d. Provide digital maps of snow water equivalent and snow depth maps in digital form for critical periods of the year for wolverine habitat from the simulations. 2. Historic snowpack variability analysis (PSD) 3. Other Tasks (CU; PSD) 4. Deliverables (CU) 5. Deliverables (PSD) |
