Conservation Planning for the Colorado River in Utah - Tamarisk Penalty for Riparian Understory Model

This dataset represents a penalty for tamarisk abundance (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.
