Sagebrush Steppe Vegetation Monitoring in the Clarno Unit of John Day Fossil Bed
Author: National Park Service
Publisher: CreateSpace
ISBN: 9781492207375
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 30
Book Description
As part of the Upper Columbia Basin Network sagebrush steppe vital signs monitoring program, a survey of sagebrush steppe ecological condition was conducted in late May and early June 2012 within the Clarno Unit of John Day Fossil Beds National Monument (JODA) following methods outlined in the Upper Columbia Basin Network monitoring protocol (Yeo et al. 2009). The plot-based surveys occurred within 3 habitat categories (strata) of vegetation communities.

Monitoring Sagebrush-Steppe Vegetation in the Upper Columbia Basin Network

ISBN: 9781492917625
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 42
Book Description
The Upper Columbia Basin Network of the National Park Service has identified 14 priority park vital signs, indicators of ecosystem health, which represent a broad suite of ecological phenomena operating across multiple temporal and spatial scales. Our intent has been to monitor a balanced and integrated "package" of vital signs that meets the needs of current park management, but will also be able to accommodate unanticipated environmental conditions in the future. Sagebrush steppe is one particularly high priority vital sign for five UCBN parks: City of Rocks National Reserve (CIRO), Craters of the Moon National Monument and Preserve (CRMO), Hagerman Fossil Beds National Monument (HAFO), John Day Fossil Beds National Monument (JODA), and Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area (LARO). Sagebrush steppe occupies over 50% of land cover in CIRO, HAFO, and JODA, and over 90% of the vegetated area of CRMO. At LARO, sagebrush steppe is present and significant in the southern half of the park and represents an important park ecosystem. Historic and current land use practices both within and adjacent to UCBN park steppe communities continue to fragment and alter steppe ecosystems, and predicted climate change scenarios for the region will likely exacerbate these changes.

Book Description
As part of the Upper Columbia Basin Network sagebrush steppe vital signs monitoring program, a survey of sagebrush steppe ecological condition was conducted in late May and early June 2012 Hagerman Fossil Beds National Monument following methods outlined in the Upper Columbia Basin Network monitoring protocol (Yeo et al. 2009). The plot-based surveys occurred within 5 sampling frames that are positioned along the Oregon Trail, the tops of benches, and along the bottomland adjacent to the Snake River. Much of the uplands of the park are inaccessible, consisting of steep and highly unstable unvegetated escarpments.

Sagebrush Steppe Vegetation Monitoring in Craters of the Moon National Monument and Preserve and City of Rocks National Reserve 2010 Annual Report

Pages : 68
Book Description
Prior to European colonization, sagebrush steppe covered approximately 44 million ha of the Intermountain West, the vast areas of land between the Rocky Mountains and the Cascades and Sierra Nevada mountain ranges (West and Young 2000). Since then the sagebrush steppe ecosystem has experienced extensive changes (USDA Forest Service 1996, West and Young 2000, Bureau of Land Management 2002, Reid et al. 2002). Substantial portions of the region have been converted to agriculture and development (West and Young 2000, Bunting et al. 2002). Much of the remaining sagebrush steppe has been degraded through overgrazing by livestock, altered fire regimes, and invasion of introduced plants (Reid et al. 2002).
