Colorado State University - Vegetation Mapping
THIS IS A NOTICE OF INTENT ONLY.
Bighorn Canyon NRA is located within the Greater Yellowstone Inventory and Monitoring Network (GRYN).
The Administrative Boundary encompasses land surrounding that part of the Bighorn River where the Yellowtail Reservoir is impounded behind Yellowtail Dam.
It includes 55,600 land acres (22,500 ha), and straddles the Bighorn River for approximately 70 miles (113km).
Land within the legislatively approved BICA Administrative Boundary is owned by the National Park Service, the Bureau of Land Management, and the Crow Nation.
The BICA Managed Area Boundary excludes those portions of the Administrative Boundary that overlap Crow Nation land.
Based on the preliminary classification of 86 vegetation types at BICA and a minimum sample of three plots per type, a total of 258 plots will be necessary to drive the quantitative classification process.
In addition, data from approximately 150-200 observation points will be collected to support mapping.
A summary of project costs by task and year is presented in tables I and II.
Details of each task in this project are presented below.
