This grant is for conducting Rapid Ecoregional Assessments (REAs) in Central Yukon, synthesizing information on resource conditions and trends. The REAs will identify and map areas of high ecological value, such as crucial wildlife habitats and corridors, while assessing potential risks from climate change, wildfires, invasive species, energy development, and urban expansion. Additionally, the project will map areas with high energy development potential and low ecological sensitivity, suitable for future development. A key objective is to establish landscape-scale baseline ecological data to effectively measure the impact and success of future management actions within the ecoregion.

| Description: | Rapid Ecoregional Assessments REA synthesize the best available information about resource conditions and trends within an ecoregion. They highlight and map areas of high ecological value, including important wildlife habitats and corridors, and gauge their potential risks from climate change, wildfires, invasive species, energy development, and urban growth. REAs also map areas that have high energy development potential, and relatively low ecological value, which could be best-suited for siting future energy development. In addition, REAs establish landscape scale baseline ecological data to gauge the effect and effectiveness of future management actions. |
