IMPROVING GEOSPATIAL DATA CAPTURE OF BIOLOGICAL FEATURES: DEVELOPMENT OF A HANDHELD TOOL FOR FIELD INVENTORY AND MAPPING

FUNDING OPPORTUNITY NUMBER: L23AS00162FUNDING OPPORTUNITY GOALS TEXT: THIS PROPOSAL CONTINUES WORK THAT STARTED 3 YEARS AGO TO IMPROVE THE FLOW OF SPECIAL STATUS SPECIES OBSERVATION DATA BETWEEN BLM HQ, FIELD OFFICES, AND STATE NATURAL HERITAGE PROGRAMS BY LINKING THROUGH THE NATURESERVE PORTAL. BLM REQUIRES EFFICIENT AND EFFECTIVE ACCESS TO THIS TYPE OF BIOLOGICAL AND LOCATION INFORMATION TO SUCCESSFULLY CONSERVE THREATENED, ENDANGERED, AND SENSITIVE SPECIES AND THEIR HABITATS. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE INFORMATION SHARED IS CONSISTENTLY COLLECTED AND SHARED WITH INVOLVED PARTIES. THIS PROPOSAL ALSO CONTINUES WORK TO COLLECT NEW INFORMATION AND REMAP THOUSANDS OF EXISTING SPECIAL STATUS SPECIES LOCATION RECORDS INTO STANDARDIZED FORMATS, MAKING THEM AVAILABLE FOR BLM USE. THE PROPOSAL IS RELEVANT GIVEN INCREASING NEED TO INFORM CONSERVATION EFFORTS IN LIGHT OF INCREASING USES OF BLM LANDS. INFORMATION COLLECTED THROUGH THIS PROPOSAL IS SHARED WITH THE PUBLIC THROUGH NATURESERVES WEBSITE, INCREASING PUBLIC UNDERSTANDING OF THE STATUS AND CONSERVATION NEEDS OF THREATENED, ENDANGERED, AND SENSITIVE SPECIES. CITIZEN SCIENTISTS CAN ALSO BECOME MORE INVOLVED IN PROVIDING ACCURATE INFORMATION THROUGH DEVELOPMENT AND USE OF THE STANDARDIZED FIELD DATA COLLECTION FORMS. THE TECHNICAL APPROACH CLEARLY LAYS OUT 5 PROJECT OBJECTIVES WITH SPECIFIC TASKS THAT ARE CLEAR AND APPLICABLE TO ACHIEVING STATED NEEDS AND RESULTS. THE APPROACH BUILDS OFF 3 PREVIOUS YEARS OF WORK TO ENSURE COLLABORATION, TRAINING, AND USE OF NEW DATA FORMS IN 5 STATES. EFFORTS WILL BE EXPANDED ACROSS ADDITIONAL STATES IN THIS PROPOSAL, WITH 2 NEW STATES IN YEAR 1. THE PROPOSAL ALSO DESCRIBES LESSONS LEARNED FROM THE PREVIOUS 3 YEAR EFFORT AND PROPOSES SOLUTIONS MOVING FORWARD WHICH IS LIKELY TO INCREASE SUCCESS OF THE APPROACH. 1. SURVEYING BLM NEEDS, EXPANDING UNDERSTANDING AND USE OF FIELD FORMS, PROVIDING TRAINING THROUGH WEBINARS, MEETINGS, AND DEVELOPMENT OF MATERIALS. 2. IDENTIFY 2 NEW STATES, DOCUMENT DATA EXCHANGE PLAN AND FREQUENCY, IDENTIFY FIELD USERS, SURVEY PRE-EXISTING DATA FOR CROSSWALK INTO FIELD SURVEY TEMPLATE, ENGAGING STAFF IN SURVEY DESIGN, TESTING, AND IMPLEMENTATION. 3.

FUNDING OPPORTUNITY NUMBER: L23AS00162FUNDING OPPORTUNITY GOALS TEXT: THIS PROJECT CONTINUES WORK FROM PREVIOUS AGREEMENTS TO EVALUATE AND FILL KNOWLEDGE GAPS ABOUT BLM SPECIAL STATUS SPECIES (SSS). CURRENT AND ACCURATE INFORMATION ON SSS STATUS AND LOCATIONS IS CRUCIAL FOR BLMS ABILITY TO MANAGE SPECIES AND THEIR HABITATS, INCLUDING UNDER CHANGING CLIMATE CONDITIONS. THE INFORMATION ALSO SUPPORTS ACCURATE NEPA EVALUATIONS AND ESA SECTION 7(A)(2) CONSULTATIONS. THE TECHNICAL APPROACH CLEARLY LAYS OUT PROJECT OBJECTIVES WITH SPECIFIC TASKS THAT ARE CLEAR AND APPLICABLE TO ACHIEVING STATED NEEDS AND RESULTS FOR UPDATED TAXONOMY, LOCATION INFORMATION, HABITAT MODELING, STATUS ASSESSMENT, AND SPECIES PRIORITIZATION. THE APPROACH BUILDS OFF 3 PREVIOUS YEARS OF WORK TO ENSURE UPDATED SSS INFORMATION. COLLECT AN TO DATE SSS LISTS AND ALIGN WITH CURRENT TAXONOMY.

PROJECT TITLE DEVELOPING A NEXT GENERATION CLIMATE CHANGE VULNERABILITY INDEX IN SUPPORT OF CLIMATE INFORMED NATURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENTPROJECT DATES 3 1 2023 THROUGH 2 29 2026AWARD PURPOSE CLIMATE CHANGE IS IMPACTING OUR NATION S PLANTS AND ANIMALS IN NUMEROUS WAYS. THE PEOPLE CHARGED WITH MANAGING PUBLIC LANDS NEED TO KNOW WHICH SPECIES ARE THREATENED BY CLIMATE CHANGE AND HOW THEY ARE THREATENED SO THEY CAN TAKE COUNTERMEASURES TO PREVENT DECLINES. BIOLOGISTS AT STATE FISH AND WILDLIFE AGENCIES PARTICULARLY NEED ESTIMATES OF SPECIES VULNERABILITY TO CLIMATE CHANGE TO BE ABLE TO PRIORITIZE THEIR CONSERVATION WORK. IN THE PAST, NATURESERVE S MICROSOFT EXCEL BASED CLIMATE CHANGE VULNERABILITY INDEX HAS PROVEN TO BE A USEFUL METHOD FOR STATE BIOLOGISTS TO PERFORM CLIMATE CHANGE VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENTS. SINCE THAT INDEX WAS RELEASED IN 2015, THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS ADVANCES IN BOTH OUR UNDERSTANDING OF HOW CLIMATE AFFECTS WILDLIFE AND TECHNOLOGY FOR DEVELOPING USER FRIENDLY TOOLS. IN THISPROJECT, RESEARCHERS AND SOFTWARE PROGRAMMERS AT NATURESERVE WILL WORK IN COLLABORATION WITH USGS SCIENTISTS AND STATE FISH AND WILDLIFE AGENCY PARTNERS TO PERFORM RESEARCH THAT WILL LEAD TO A REVISED, SCIENTIFICALLY ROBUST VERSION OF THE CLIMATE CHANGE VULNERABILITY INDEX. THIS NEW VERSION WILL BE WEB BASED, ALLOWING COLLABORATION AMONG SCIENTISTS AND USERS, AND WILL FEATURE THE LATEST SCIENTIFIC PROJECTIONS OF FUTURE CLIMATE ACROSS THE COUNTRY. IN ADDITION, IT WILL FEATURE NEW METRICS THAT ASSESS HOW SPECIES CAN ADAPT TO OR COPE WITH CLIMATE CHANGE. BY THE END OF THE PROJECT, NATURESERVE WILL POST THIS FREE ONLINE TOOL FOR STATE BIOLOGISTS AND OTHER SCIENTISTS. THIS NEW VERSION OF THE CLIMATE CHANGE VULNERABILITY INDEX (CCVI) IS ESPECIALLY TIMELY, AS IT WILL BE RELEASED IN TIME FOR STATE BIOLOGISTS TO USE IT FOR REVISIONS TO THEIR STATE WILDLIFE ACTION PLANS, WHICH ARE FEDERALLY MANDATED CONSERVATION PLANS THAT ARE DUE IN 2025.ACTIVITIES TO BE PERFORMED UPDATE CLIMATE EXPOSURE METRICS UPDATE SENSITIVITY AND ADAPTIVE CAPACITY ATTRIBUTES MODERNIZE AND IMPROVE ACCESS BY MOVING TOOL TO ONLINE FORMAT COLLABORATE WITH STATE PARTNERS TO ITERATIVELY RESEARCH CCVI USABILITY PILOT AND TEST ADDITIONAL CLIMATE EXPOSURE VARIABLES RESEARCH AND TEST USE OF CLIMATE SCENARIOS TO GUIDE EXPOSURE METRICS CONDUCT SENSITIVITY ANALYSESDELIVERABLES AND EXPECTED OUTCOMES PHASE 1 (1) ONLINE CCVI TOOL WITH SPECIFIC LEVELS OF FUNCTIONALITY (2) DOCUMENTATION, INCLUDING TUTORIAL AND SUGGESTED WORKFLOW (3) AT LEAST ONE WEBINAR DEMONSTRATING THE TOOL TO TARGETED USERS.
