Biological Investigations, Monitoring and Restoration on Federal Lands

biological resources using the latest available research to guide management techniques. - Perform inventories and monitoring of significant biological resources and sensitive, Threatened, and Endangered species and research pollination ecology. - Develop distribution models for priority species (including sensitive, Threatened, Endangered, and invasive), ecological systems/vegetation, permeability, and other desired models to support planning, under both current and potential future climate scenarios. - Review Species Status Assessments and provide data development services to inform critical habitat. - Develop site plans and assist with restoration of degraded landscapes. - Conduct sampling and studies that describe how the Preble's meadow jumping mouse uses of habitats and to understand what habitat conditions support Preble¿s meadow jumping mouse populations. - Conduct sampling and population monitoring of the Preble's meadow jumping mouse persistence in appropriate habitats. - Conduct sampling and monitoring of the Preble's meadow jumping mouse to understand population dynamics, movement patterns, and natural history. - Vegetation mapping and monitoring. Perform wildlife and vegetation monitoring to inform the Bird/Wildlife Aircraft Strike (BASH) prevention program.
