Background & Supporting Information from the Spatial Decision Support System:

March 2013

Death Valley National Park

Threat Ranking for Death Valley National Park The direct and indirect effects of each potential threat to an increase in risk to the Mojave desert

tortoise in Death Valley National Park. Threats are ranked based on their overall contribution to risk.

These outputs come directly from the spatial decision support system.

Recovery Action Ranking for Death Valley

National Park Recovery action types are ranked based on their overall contribution to decreasing risk to the tortoise

in Death Valley National Park. Center symbols of each bar indicate the average estimated

effectiveness, and endpoints indicate potential high and low estimated effectiveness for each action

type. These outputs come directly from the spatial decision support system.

Ivanpah Area of Critical Environmental Concern

(ACEC)

Threat Ranking for Ivanpah ACEC The direct and indirect effects of each potential threat to an increase in risk to the Ivanpah ACEC.

Threats are ranked based on their overall contribution to risk. These outputs come directly from the

spatial decision support system

.

Recovery Action Ranking for Ivanpah ACEC Recovery action types are ranked based on their overall contribution to decreasing risk to the tortoise

in the Ivanpah ACEC. Center symbols of each bar indicate the average estimated effectiveness, and

endpoints indicate potential high and low estimated effectiveness for each action type. These outputs

come directly from the spatial decision support system.

Mojave National Preserve

Threat Ranking for Mojave National Preserve The direct and indirect effects of each potential threat to an increase in risk to the Mojave National

Preserve. Threats are ranked based on their overall contribution to risk. These outputs come directly
