Bauer, 1971, pp. 231-234 in: San Luis Basin (Colorado), James, H. L.; [ed.], New Mexico Geological Society 22nd Annual Fall Field Conference Guidebook, 340 p. This is one of many related papers that were included in the 1971 NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebook. Annual NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebooks Every fall since 1950, the New Mexico Geological Society (NMGS) has held an annual Fall Field Conference that explores some region of New Mexico (or surrounding states). Always well attended, these conferences provide a guidebook to participants. Besides detailed road logs, the guidebooks contain many well written, edited, and peer-reviewed geoscience papers. These books have set the national standard for geologic guidebooks and are an essential geologic reference for anyone working in or around New Mexico. Free Downloads NMGS has decided to make peer-reviewed papers from our Fall Field Conference guidebooks available for free download. Non-members will have access to guidebook papers two years after publication. Members have access to all papers. This is in keeping with our mission of promoting interest, research, and cooperation regarding geology in New Mexico. However, guidebook sales represent a significant proportion of our operating budget. Therefore, only research papers are available for download. Road logs, mini-papers, maps, stratigraphic charts, and other selected content are available only in the printed guidebooks.

  • Chapter 3 of the State Wildlife Action Plan
    Colorado’s 2015 State Wildlife Action Plan Chapter 3: Habitats This chapter presents updated information on the distribution and condition of key habitats in Colorado. The habitat component of Colorado’s 2006 SWAP considered 41 land cover types from the Colorado GAP Analysis (Schrupp et al. 2000). Since then, the Southwest Regional GAP project (SWReGAP, USGS 2004) has produced updated land cover mapping using the U.S. National Vegetation Classification (NVC) names for terrestrial ecological systems. In the strictest sense, ecological systems are not equivalent to habitat types for wildlife. Ecological systems as defined in the NVC include both dynamic ecological processes and biogeophysical characteristics, in addition to the component species. However, the ecological systems as currently classified and mapped are closely aligned with the ways in which Colorado’s wildlife managers and conservation professionals think of, and manage for, habitats. Thus, for the purposes of the SWAP, references to the NVC systems should be interpreted as wildlife habitat in the general sense. Fifty-seven terrestrial ecological systems or altered land cover types mapped for SWReGAP have been categorized into 20 habitat types, and an additional nine aquatic habitats and seven “Other” habitat categories have been defined. SWAP habitat categories are listed in Table 4 (see Appendix C for the crosswalk of SWAP habitats with SWReGAP mapping units). Though nomenclature is slightly different in some cases, the revised habitat categories presented in this document

This report reflects the separate nature of the projects by being organized in a two-volume set. Both projects utilized the same Natural Heritage methodology that is used throughout North America, and both searched for and assessed the plants, animals, and plant communities on the Colorado Natural Heritage Program’s list of rare and imperiled elements of biodiversity. Each volume prioritizes potential conservation areas based on the relative significance of the biodiversity they support and the urgency for protection of the site. All information explaining Natural Heritage methodology and ranks is repeated in each volume, so that each volume can stand-alone and be used independently of the other.
