Rangeland Management
Blue Mountain Environmental Consulting utilizes state of the art
technologies to efficiently characterize ecological resources and to
summarize project findings responsive client and project objectives.
We provide a host of rangeland-management services directed towards
meeting long-term conservation goals.
We uses standard sampling protocols or creates custom
methods to meet project objectives. We frequently employ an iterative
procedure, which includes a landscape-level assessment and a focused inventory.
The landscape level assessment may utilize Modified-Whittaker plots
or Forest Health Monitoring plots (below) to quantify the species
composition and frequency by origin, duration and growth habit. A
focused inventory also may be employed to map the distribution of
noxious weeds throughout known corridors of weed migration. Our
weed mapping efforts comply with North American Invasive Plant Mapping Standards.
