Description

Activities
The project will develop and validate models using landsat satellite imagery to track tree encroachment in subalpine meadows from 1984 to 2024. High-resolution imagery and field data, including lidar and aerial photography, will be used to calibrate and ensure model accuracy. Decadal maps of tree cover changes will be generated for olympic, mount rainier, and glacier national parks, with trends analyzed at basin scales and linked to factors such as elevation and snow duration. Collaboration with park managers and wildlife biologists will ensure results are tailored to wildlife monitoring and habitat management needs.deliverables and expected outcomes: the project will produce detailed maps of tree encroachment across the three parks, summarizing changes from 1984 to 2024. A peer-reviewed publication will document methods, results, and insights for broader applications in meadow and forest management. Metadata and geospatial datasets will be delivered to park staff for integration into ongoing wildlife and habitat monitoring programs.intended beneficiary(IES): this project will directly benefit olympic, mount rainier, and glacier national parks by providing critical tools and data for managing subalpine meadows. Park managers, wildlife biologists, and conservation practitioners will gain actionable insights to support habitat restoration, wildlife population monitoring, and adaptive management strategies.
