Conservation Planning for the Colorado River in Utah - Prevalence of Mesic Shrubs for Riparian Understory Model

Description

This dataset represents the number of mesic shrub species (averaged per 1.0 ha) as mapped along the Colorado River bottomland from the Colorado state line (San Juan and Grand Counties, Utah) to the southern Canyonlands NP boundary, as of September 2010. This mapping was conducted as part of the Colorado River Conservation Planning Project, a joint effort between the National Park Service, The Nature Conservancy, US Geological Survey, Bureau of Land Management, and Utah Forestry Fire and State Lands.
