Lonneker JJ and Conway CJ. 2017. Data Quality Standards for Monitoring Protocol for Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) at Craters of the Moon National Monument & Preserve and City of Rocks National Reserve. National Park Service. UCBN
The purpose of this report is to document the standards, used by the Upper Columbia Basin Network (UCBN) for activities related to the collection, processing, storage, analysis, and publication of monitoring data as described in the UCBN Monitoring Protocol for Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) at Craters of the Moon National Monument & Preserve (CRMO) and City of Rocks National Reserve (CIRO) (Conway, et al. 2018). The policies and procedures documented in this quality-assurance plan for these activities complement the quality-assurance plans for other monitoring activities conducted by the UCBN and supplement the National Inventory & Monitoring Division Quality Management Plan (Citation to be added later). The plan also serves as a guide for all UCBN personnel who are involved in protocol/program activities and as a resource for identifying memoranda, publications, and other literature that describe associated techniques and requirements in more detail.
