Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit, Great Basin CESU: The goal of this project is to promote cooperation between the USGS and CESU Universities to evaluate spatial modeling of natural resources for a multitude of projects in the Mojave Desert. For example, this spatial modeling effort will be used to locate suitable habitat for the desert tortoise near Ft. Irwin National Training Center (FINTC), San Bernardino County, California. This project will provide research, technical assistance and education to federal land managers and their partners to model potential habitat for a variety of sensitive species including the desert tortoise in the Mojave Desert. The modeling will require GIS information that is geospatially rectified portraying biological, physical, and social data layers. Quality assurance and control (QA/QC) will be an important part of preparing data layers for use in these analyses and for comparison with current work.
