Potential for land cover to change from trees to grass, forb, and herb between 1987 and 2020 in the Teton Mountain Range. Image created from LCMS land cover data which are derived from Landsat 4, 5, 7, and 8 imagery (1987 - 2020). High transition potential is depicted in yellow and low transition potential is indigo. Transition potentials help to forecast land cover and inform land managers on the locations of suitable bighorn sheep habitat.

Predicted cheatgrass green-up imagery from Landsat 8 OLI data. This composite image of the western portion of the Mullen Fire Study Area is from June 2022. Shades of green and yellow indicate an earlier green-up time, while orange, brown, and white areas show later predicted green-up times. This data was used to create NDVI difference maps which will help managers predict when and where to apply treatments to limit the spread of cheatgrass.
