Wetlands are an essential component of Colorado's landscape that greatly benefit the people of Colorado by performing a number of vital functions, including water quality improvement, flood attenuation, and wildlife habitat. As resource managers, planners, and restoration practitioners attempt to mitigate for impacts to aquatic ecosystems, there is a growing need for conservation planning tools that help bridge the gap between ecological data collection and applied restoration and water resource management. The Colorado Natural Heritage Program has worked to meet this need by developing the Watershed Planning Toolbox--an online mapping interface intended to help users visualize wetland and stream distribution, landscape-scale ecological functions, hydrologic modification, stressors and prioritization for conservation and restoration at the HUC8 subbasin scale., Sarah Marshall, Joanna Lemly, Gabrielle Smith., "November 2018.", Includes bibliographical references (page 90-95), Online resource; title from PDF title page (viewed January 2021)
In Colorado, no single state agency is responsible for wetlands, but many agencies and organizations have their own plans that either specifically address wetland protection, regulation, and management or involve wetland and aquatic resources indirectly. The intent of this WPP is to tie together the priorities, goals, objectives, and actions embedded in existing state plans, and identified through the development of this WPP, into one comprehensive document. The agencies involved in the aforementioned plans explicitly support the development of a multi-agency WPP and recognize the benefits of having a consolidated wetland plan., Sarah Marshall and Joanna Lemly., "May 2020.", Includes bibliographical references (page 32-33), Online resource; title from PDF title page (viewed February 2021)
This project involved developing an updated Colorado statewide wildfire risk assessment. The project was based on leveraging the data and achievements of the West Wide Wildfire Risk Assessment (WWA) project, and tailoring these to reflect Colorado conditions, requirements and priorities. The WWA documented the risk from wildfire by quantifying the magnitude of the current wild land fire problem in the West. The WWA is unique because it will assess all lands across the west using consistent data and methods, therefore providing information to support planning and decision making at national, regional, and state scales. The WWA results provide a foundation for coordinating policy and baseline data for state level planning, especially for those states with limited resources. The WWA is a separate, regional effort with potential to complement the State Forest Resource Assessments and Forest Action Plans currently maintained by individual states as required by the 2008 Farm Bill and part of USFS State and Private Forestry Redesign., prepared for Colorado State Forest Service ; prepared by Data Transfer Solutions., "Last Updated: February 21, 2013.", Online resource; title from PDF caption (viewed March 2021)
