Great Basin Montane Watersheds - Regions (Feature Layer)

Multiple research and management partners collaboratively developed a multiscale approach for assessing the geomorphic sensitivity of streams and ecological resilience of riparian and meadow ecosystems in upland watersheds of the Great Basin to disturbances and management actions. The approach builds on long-term work by the partners on the responses of these systems to disturbances and management actions. At the core of the assessments is information on past and present watershed and stream channel characteristics, geomorphic and hydrologic processes, and riparian and meadow vegetation. In this report, we describe the approach used to delineate Great Basin mountain ranges and the watersheds within them, and the data that are available for the individual watersheds. We also describe the resulting database and the data sources. Furthermore, we summarize information on the characteristics of the regions and watersheds within the regions and the implications of the assessments for geomorphic sensitivity and ecological resilience. The target audience for this multiscale approach is managers and stakeholders interested in assessing and adaptively managing Great Basin stream systems and riparian and meadow ecosystems. Anyone interested in delineating the mountain ranges and watersheds within the Great Basin or quantifying the characteristics of the watersheds will be interested in this report.

多个研究与管理合作伙伴共同研发了一种多尺度评估方法，以测定大盆地高原流域内溪流的形态敏感性以及河岸和草地生态系统的生态恢复力对干扰和管理措施的反应。该方法基于合作伙伴长期对这些系统对干扰和管理措施的反应的研究。评估的核心是关于过去和现在流域及溪流渠道特征、地貌和水文过程以及河岸和草地植被的信息。在本报告中，我们描述了用于界定大盆地山脉及其内部流域的方法，以及可用于各个流域的数据。我们还描述了由此产生的数据库和数据来源。此外，我们总结了关于地区和地区内流域的特征信息以及评估对于地貌敏感性和生态恢复力的意义。本多尺度方法的目标受众是那些对评估和适应性管理大盆地溪流系统以及河岸和草地生态系统感兴趣的管理者和利益相关者。任何对界定大盆地内的山脉和流域或量化流域特征感兴趣的人都将对此报告感兴趣。如需更多信息，请访问：https://www.fs.usda.gov/research/treesearch/61573Metadata and Downloads。此记录来源于为 https://data.gov 目录提供数据的 USDA 企业数据目录。本记录的数据包括以下资源：ISO-19139 元数据、ArcGIS Hub 数据集、ArcGIS GeoService、OGC WMS、CSV、Shapefile、GeoJSON。完整信息请访问 https://data.gov。
