 Provide leadership and a framework linking science and management to address shared ecological, climate, and social and economic issues across the basin.  Focus science and management actions to sustain natural resources in the context of changing environmental conditions.  Enhance collaboration to integrate science and management among Great Basin LCC partners particularly as related to climate change and other landscape-scale change agents.  Promote communication and education. 3

 BLM, USGS and FWS funding to support administrative and technical capacity for the cooperative  BLM asked the cooperative to review Great Basin Rapid Ecological Assessment for the Central Great Basin  Developed communication plan with steering committee members for the cooperative 4

 Forum topics include:  A recap of the summer and early fall climate conditions  Review of summer and early fall wildfire conditions  Hydro-climate effects on rangeland ecosystem soils  Current climate impacts on Great Basin Tribes 7

 Currently ramping up to conduct our science prioritization process  Review of Rapid Ecological Assessment for the Central Great Basin  Inter-LCC Sage Grouse effort  LC Map for Sage Grouse  Engaged in long-term discussions regarding sage-step dependent species, impact of fire and invasive species 8

 Engaged with the NFS EPSCOR program in focusing science toward key risk and vulnerability assessments  Engaged with several researchers funded by the Climate Science Centers and others in the creation of Decision Support Tools  Working with NWCSC and SWCSC on their RFPs for FY 14  They set a online process to begin this winter 9
