This grant, offered through the Southern Rockies Landscape Conservation Cooperatives program, is designed to assess the vulnerability and connectivity of landscapes and riparian habitats. Its primary purpose is to characterize the exposure of these vital ecosystems to climate and land use change, computing their potential impact. Furthermore, the project aims to identify the adaptive capacity of these habitats by evaluating their current landscape condition. A significant component involves modeling the connectivity across both general landscapes and specific riparian ecological systems. Ultimately, this initiative seeks to comprehensively characterize the overall vulnerability of these crucial ecosystems and habitats to inform conservation and management strategies.
