Cattle Habitat Selection Index for the Great Basin region in the western United States
Description
We collected cattle GPS location data within three sites across the Great Basin ecoregion. We then coupled these data with multi-resolution remotely sensed vegetation, hydrology, and topographic data to develop a cattle resource selection surface across Nevada and northeastern California. This layer can support grazing management through targeted or rotational grazing by providing a visualization of where cattle selection overlaps with fuels, invasive vegetation, and wildlife habitat.
