NM Ecological Site Description StrategyNM Ecological Site Description Strategy

• Guiding Principles:• ESD are public documents• ESD is the framework upon which much of

NM ecological communication is based. “Lingua franca”

• ESD are in competition or complimentary with other ecological classification systems for usage. (Plant Associations, ECS, …)

• ESD has the advantage of containing predictive State and Transition Models.

• NM-ESD Core Group provides recommendations on ESD implementation strategies and priorities.

• Core Group Meeting Minutes URL:• http://usda-ars.nmsu.edu/esd• NRCS policy requires that ESD data be

stored at Ecological Site Information System (ESIS) web site, URL:

• http://esis.sc.egov.usda.gov/

• By NRCS policy ESD are to be data based and displayed in Electronic Field Office Tech Guide (EFOTG) URL: http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/technical/efotg/

• Section 2 of the EFOTG has a sub category for ESD. This JavaScript based display of ESD is frustrating and confusing for users.

• Core Group asked for a map based display of ESD choices.

• Some users are visual and some are tabular oriented so choices are displayed both ways.

• ESD has a long history of widespread use in NM. Old Range Site descriptions based on 1983 MLRA maps and concepts

• 2003 MLRA map and concepts is compatible with surrounding states published ESD data.

• CONCLUSION:• NM has all ESD loaded into ESIS and available

to the public.• A full correlation completed with TX and ½ of

AZ. • Full NASIS and ESIS correlation completed with

all major and minor components. • Web Soil Survey updated to the public and

Toolkit databases updated to NRCS folks.

Rangeland Ecological Site Interagency Manual

(190-V-RESIM, First Edition, 2008)

Purpose of the MOU: Develop a standardized method for defining, delineating, and describing ecological sites

Common Objective: utilize science-based technical processes to sustain and enhance natural resources and the environment.

Minimum requirements to be included in the contents of the draft rangeland ecological site description (190-V-RESIM, First Edition, 2008)

Ecological site name, number and map of geographic extent.Physiographic features: landform, geology, aspect, slope, elevation, etc.Climatic features: frost/freeze free period, MAP, NOAA stations, monthly moisture and temp.Influencing water features: e.g., riparian areas or wetlands (Cowardin & Rosgen).Representative soil features: differentiating on ecological site from another (e.g., growth, hydrology, adaptation).Ecological dynamics of the Site: states, transitions, thresholds, community pathways, etc., as a result of disturbance.

Minimum requirements to be included in the contents of the draft rangeland ecological site description, cont’d (190-V-RESIM, First Edition, 2008)

Vegetation: standardized plant names from Integrated Taxonomic Information System-PLANTS database; for reference state, list of plant species, normal annual production; canopy, foliar, basal cover as related to lifeform; states, community phases; tree production, sites index.Supporting information: relationship to other ecological sites and other classification systems (e.g., NVCS).

Recommendations for correlation of ESD’s and TEUI data

Decide on a consistent scale to correlate.Agree upon site selection criteria for ecological sites (stability, diversity, function).Uniformly embrace a vegetation taxonomic system (e.g., NVCS).Strive for a data-driven state and transition model.Develop additional crosswalks between systems.
