Libraries, 2014-10) Sovell, John, author; Colorado Natural Heritage Program, publisherThe Pawnee montane skipper (Hesperia leonardus montana) (PMS) is listed as Threatened under the Endangered Species Act. To assist in evaluating the effects of forest restoration treatments, the USFS, USFWS, and Denver Water sponsored a monitoring program for the PMS. Annual monitoring began in August 2000, was conducted through 2013, and will continue into the future. Three forest restoration treatment areas (2000 treatment, 2002 treatment, and 2004 treatment) and a control area were designated for monitoring. The primary objective of monitoring is to compare skipper use of untreated lower montane forest with use in lower montane forest that has been thinned to reduce fire danger and that is expected to improve PMS habitat.Item Open Access Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado 2001-2005 vegetation classification and mapping(Colorado State University. Libraries, 2005-08) Salas, David, author; Stevens, Joe, author; Schulz, Keith, author; United States. Bureau of Reclamation. Denver Office. Technical Service Center, publisherRocky Mountain National Park (ROMO) encompasses 417 square miles in north central Colorado, and lies on the eastern slope of the southern Rocky Mountains. This mapping effort is part of the National Park Services' national inventory and monitoring program and will provide core or "baseline" information that park managers need to effectively manage and protect park resources. This vegetation inventory was conducted in accordance with specified protocols and quality assurance standards.Item Open Access Statewide conservation plan for Colorado(Colorado State University. Libraries, 1995-06-30) Nature Conservancy (U.S.), publisherItem Open Access Sand Creek Massacre National Historic Site vegetation classification and mapping: a report for the Southern Plains Network(Colorado State University.

National Park Service, publisherSand Creek Massacre National Historic Site (SAND) is on the high plains of southeastern Colorado in the rain shadow of the Rocky Mountains. Following the protocols of the USGS-NPS Vegetation Mapping Program, the Colorado Natural Heritage Program (CNHP) performed a two-year project to classify and map the vegetation at SAND.Item Open Access Natural heritage inventory of La Sierra, Costilla County, Colorado(Colorado State University.

Libraries, 2021-03) Sovell, John, author; Colorado Natural Heritage Program, publisherThe primary objective of the monitoring effort is to compare skipper use (measured by the number of adult butterflies seen within a known area) of untreated lower montane forest with butterfly use in lower montane forest that has been thinned to reduce fire danger, which is expected to improve Pawnee montane skipper habitat.Item Open Access Pike and San Isabel National Forests and Comanche and Cimarron National Grasslands plants of special concern(Colorado State University. Libraries, 1993-12) Kettler, Stephan M., author; Lederer, Nancy D., author; Bacher, Diane, author; Spackman, Susan, author; Colorado Natural Heritage Program, publisherItem Open Access Noxious weed survey of Peterson Air Force Base - 2014(Colorado State University. Libraries, 2014-12) Rondeau, Renée, author; Lavender-Greenwell, Amy, author; Colorado Natural Heritage Program, publisherIn the summer of 2014, the Colorado Natural Heritage Program (CNHP) mapped noxious weeds at Peterson Air Force Base (PAFB) east of Colorado Springs, Colorado. This was the second sample year, with 2003 the first (Anderson et al. 2003). The project was undertaken to provide the PAFB Natural Resources Manager with information contributing to the development of a formal Integrated Weed Management Plan ... Thirteen species of weeds were assessed on PAFB, one on the A list, eight on the B list, three on the C list and one on the watch list. Since the 2003 survey, three species increased, two were stable, three decreased, three were eradicated and two new species on the state noxious weed list were observed.

Libraries, 1998-12-20) Carpenter, Alan, author; Kettler, Steve, author; Pineda, Phyllis M., author; Colorado Natural Heritage Program, publisherItem Open Access Noxious weed survey of the Pueblo Chemical Depot 2015(Colorado State University. Libraries, 2016-04) Smith, Pamela, author; Greenwell, Amy Lavender, author; Colorado Natural Heritage Program, publisherNine species of state listed noxious weeds were mapped at PCD in 2015 and assessed for their threat level based on coverage, plant biology, surrounding land use and their potential to spread. The use of repeatable data is important to facilitate comparisons of weed populations over time. This report and the spatial dataset will provide a useful tool to develop weed mitigation strategies and invasive species control plans to comply with noxious weed regulations.Item Open Access A systematic inventory for Lepidoptera species of concern at Ranson-Edwards Homestead Park, Pine Valley Ranch and Deadman Gulch, Jefferson County, Colorado and recommendations for their conservation, 1998 field season: final report(Colorado State University.
