<br />4 <br /> <br />4. Ecosystem analyses to improve understanding of the most critical attributes <br /> <br />thought to be drivers of change of individual resources and groups of <br /> <br />resources, and the interdependencies of attributes within and across resources. <br /> <br />5. Development of predictive models of ecosystem function and interaction. <br /> <br />MISSION AND SCOPE OF GCMRC <br />AND THE STRATEGIC PLAN <br /> <br />The GCPA and GCDEIS direct the Secretary of Interior, "To establish and implement <br /> <br />long-tenn monitoring programs and activities that will ensure that Glen Canyon Dam is <br /> <br />operated in a manner consistent with that of Section 1802" of the GCPA <br /> <br />The mission of the Grand Canyon Monitoring and Research Center (GCMRC) is to <br /> <br />develop and implement long-tenn monitoring and related research activities to determine "The <br /> <br />effect of the Secretary's actions" on the natural, recreational, and cultural resources of Grand <br /> <br />Canyon National Park and Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, as well as other <br /> <br />information needs specified by the AMWG. The GCMRC will work cooperatively with the <br /> <br />AMWG, utilizing an adaptive management process and implementing monitoring and <br /> <br />scientific investigations within an ecosystem science framework. <br /> <br />Long-term monitoring will occur on all resources of concern, to determine changes in <br /> <br />resource attributes. Research will be used to interpret and explain trends observed from <br /> <br />monitoring, to determine cause and effect relationships and research associations, and to <br /> <br />better define interrelationships among physical, biological and social processes. <br /> <br />[Final Draft 3/17/97] <br /> <br />"- <br />
