Rare Plant DatabaseCNHP BIOTICS Database 521 fully tracked plantspecies 79 watchlisted plant species 126 non vascular plantspecies 5,500 element occurrences 18,200 mapped locations

Vegetation Ecology DatabaseCNHP BIOTICS Database 56 ecological systems 570 fully tracked USNVCplant associations(communities) 235 partially tracked plantassociations 3,585 element occurrences 5100 mapped locations

Rare Plant Surveys Focus on SWAP Tier 1 &2 PGCN, Federally listedand Sensitive species Search for newlocations; assesscurrent size, condition,threats Utilize emergingtechnology Results support listingdecisions, ACEC, RNAand Natural Areadesignations

County Surveys of Critical BiologicalResources Focus on privatelands; all CNHPtracked species,& wetlands Over 40 countiessurveyed Results supportopen space,natural areas andNational Parkdesignations

Vegetation/Rare Plant Monitoring Assess habitat condition anddemographic trends of PGCN Monitor vegetation changesover time in response tomanagement activities andenvironmental changes Results guide landmanagement decisions andspecies conservation

Habitat Modeling Developed withMaxent & RandomForest methodology Focus on T&E/PGCN Spatial dataavailable to landmanagers/CODEX Results guide rareplant habitatconservation inareas of intensivedevelopment

Climate Change Vulnerability Assessments Over 150 plantspecies assessed todate Use NatureServeCCVI tool Results informspecies adaptationstrategies

Weed Research and Mapping Weed surveys andmapping to sub-meteraccuracy Monitoring to informweed treatment plans Identify invasiontrends

Outreach Plant identificationworkshops Guest lectures at CSU &professional organizations Native Plant Master classes Adopt-a-Rare-Plant BioBlitz participation
