This conference will interest those involved in research that utilizes meteorological and climatological data.
The use of land management tools such as prescribed fire and herbicide is often limited in areas occupied by threatened or endangered species, due to potential negative impacts on these sensitive organisms. This makes maintaining or enhancing habitat quality for these species difficult, for without active management, prairie habitat quickly becomes unsuitable.
Recent unprecedented collaboration among management agencies, scientists, private landowners, industry, and others working to sustain healthy sagebrush ecosystems across all boundaries demonstrates the effectiveness of working together.
