Task 13. Report <br />The report will be a comprehensive document that includes <br />individual sample and summary data tables, plant species lists, a <br />vegetation map, and text. <br />The text of the report will include an introduction that explains <br />the objectives of the vegetation program and relates the vegetation of the <br />project site to regional environmental variables; a methods section which <br />thoroughly documents all sample procedures; and a results and discussion <br />section which presents the quantitative cover, production, and density <br />data and provides an interpretive discussion of the ecology of each <br />vegetation type with emphasis on relationships to the regional environment. <br />We will discuss the potential or actual occurrence of threatened or <br />endangered species (USFtJS 1980, Colorado Natural Heritage Inventory 1983) <br />or other species of particular importance or concern, such as noxious weeds <br />(see Thornton et al. 1974). We will calculated plant species diversity <br />per vegetation type and corresponding reference area. <br />The vegetation map will be produced on a mylar topographic contour <br />base. The boundaries of each vegetation type, disturbed areas, reference <br />areas, sample sites, permit area boundaries, study area boundaries, etc. <br />will all be precisely delineated. <br />-5- <br />
