Joint Fire Science Program logo The Joint Fire Science Program provides funding for SageSTEP. It is a partnership of six Federal wildland and fire and research organizations and was established in 1998 to provide scientific information and support for fuel and fire management programs.
Great Basin Restoration Initiative logo The Great Basin Restoration Initiative is a Bureau of Land Management program that focuses on finding ways to protect and restore Great Basin rangelands that are threatened by non-native plant invasion and wildfire.

Cooperative Sagebrush Initiative is a region-wide program that works to recover the western sagebrush steppe biome through a collaborative, coordinative, and cost-effective public-private partnership.

Eastern Nevada Landscape Coalition is a community-based partnership to maintain and restore healthy Great Basin ecosystems.

Great Basin Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit provides research, technical assistance and education to federal land management, environmental and research agencies and their potential partners.

Great Basin Ecology Laboratory conducts research using a collaborative, interdisciplinary approach to increase understanding of Great Basin ecosystems and to develop approaches for maintaining and restoring their integrity. It is part of the USDA Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station.

Great Basin Environmental Program is an environmental management initiative that will establish partnerships and integrate efforts for environmental change with federal agencies, state agencies, NGOs and the private sector to address critical ecosystem issues.

Great Basin Information Project offers access to information about the Great Basin and the Columbia Plateau Regions. This project is conducted by the National Biological Information Infrastructure.

Integrating Weed Control & Restoration for Great Basin Rangelands is an interdisciplinary with a mission to identify concepts and management strategies to control cheatgrass and other weeds on Great Basin rangelands and restore native species and increase biodiversity. Many of the scientists who are involved in SageSTEP also participate in this project.

Rangelands West delivers quality information, resources, and tools to improve management and ensure sustainability of western rangelands

SAGEMAP is a GIS database for Sage Grouse and shrubsteppe management in the Intermountain West. This project is conducted by the Snake River Field Station (SRFS) of the USGS Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center.

Sage-Grouse Resoraton Project is a cooperative effort to document the effects of 2002 Farm Bill conservation practices in restoring sagebrush steppe ecosystems to benefit sage-grouse and other sagebrush obligates. The project is conducted by USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service and Utah State University Extension.

The Sagebrush Landscape Project conducts research on habitats for species of conservation concern in the sagebrush ecosystem. This project is conducted by the USDA Forest Service Pacific Northwest Research Station.

Society for Range Management is the professional society dedicated to supporting persons who work with rangelands and have a commitment to their sustainable use.
