Landscape resilience is defined in the Integrated Rangeland Fire Management Strategy as "the ability of an area to recover from a disturbance, such as wildfire or drought." This gallery includes data related to both resilience and resistance, as well as disturbance factors.
Resilience and resistance has become a fundamental paradigm applied in Great Basin land and resource management. In addition to landscape resilience, assessments of habitat connectivity and climate refugia help to expand the spatial and temporal frame within which decisions are made. Each of these topics is represented in data included in this gallery. In addition, there are data layers on land use and development, invasive species, grazing, fire, and more.
