This grant is for the purpose of advancing bird species distribution modeling, building upon existing data from the 2011 U.S. State of the Birds Report. The project aims to quantify and visually represent how bird populations are distributed in relation to public lands, with a particular focus on landbird species highly associated with habitats on Bureau of Land Management (BLM) lands across the western U.S. The findings will be crucial in identifying which bird species possess a high proportion of their total population on federal lands. This will enable the BLM and other federal agencies to recognize and prioritize their significant stewardship responsibilities for the effective conservation of these vulnerable bird species.

| Description: | This project is intended to use and expand on modeling completed for the 2011 U.S. State of the Birds Report to quantify and display the distributions of bird species in relation to public lands, with particular emphasis on landbird species thought to be highly associated with habitats on BLM lands in the western U.S. These models will reveal which bird species the BLM (and other federal agencies) has a high proportion of the total species population, and therefore has important stewardship responsibility for their conservation |
