Rangeland Monitoring

EMMA partners with the Bureau of Land Management to collect monitoring data on public lands. The agency uses this data to assess the condition of natural resources and make management decisions. EMMA crews work throughout the West, in Montana, Idaho, Nevada, Utah and Wyoming, collecting vegetation and soils data in upland, wetland and riparian ecosystems, as well as recording physical and chemical characteristics of wadeable streams and rivers.
