The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is offering this grant for a National Resources Inventory Project. This grant is for characterizing soil, vegetation, and land conditions to ensure sustainable rangeland and woodland health across public lands. It aids BLM’s management by assessing natural resource information via applied research, with technical assistance from a Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU) partner. The project employs the National Resources Inventory statistical method to analyze data crucial for BLM’s sustainable planning. This initiative also assesses how climate change or land management impacts land productivity and supports interagency Ecological Site Description efforts.

Description: | This project is a characterization of soil, vegetation, condition sampling for determining future sustainable rangeland and woodland health in relation to BLMs many permitted activities. Technical assistance and support from a partner of Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit CESU is to help assess and interpret natural resource information as an applied research study to help BLM plan and determine a sustainable future for our public lands. This proposed project also supports a public purpose by analyzing data collected under a proven statistical method, the National Resources Inventory, which is vital to BLM. The project supports BLM’s goals and mission to assess whether climate change or land management activities are improving or degrading the productivity of the land. At the same time, this work promotes useful information to support the interagency Ecological Site Description and transition model efforts. |
