  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;We developed a unique set of landscape projections for the Great&amp;nbsp;Plains&amp;nbsp;that use real&amp;nbsp;land-management&amp;nbsp;parcels to represent landscape patterns at high spatial and thematic resolution.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Both anthropogenic land use and natural vegetation respond in the model to projected changes in&amp;nbsp;groundwater&amp;nbsp;availability and&amp;nbsp;climate change.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Thirty-three scenario combinations were modeled, facilitating landscape planning and mitigation efforts under a range of possible landscape futures.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Change in&amp;nbsp;rangeland&amp;nbsp;from 2014 to 2100 varied from an increase of 4.3% for the Special Report on Emissions Scenarios (SRES) B2 scenario, to a decline of 23.6% for the SRES A1B scenario.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;The spatially and thematically detailed projections are designed for the assessment of landscape interactions with&amp;nbsp;water flow&amp;nbsp;and water quality, species distribution and abundance modeling,&amp;nbsp;greenhouse gas&amp;nbsp;assessments, and other ecosystem services.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
