This report describes and applies the Land Use Simu- lation Model (LUSM), the final modeling product for the long-term decision support project funded by the Southern Nevada Public Land Management Act and developed by the U.S. Geological Survey's Western Geographic Science Center for the Lake Tahoe Basin. Within the context of the natural- resource management and anthropogenic issues of the basin and in an effort to advance land-use and land-cover change science, this report addresses the problem of developing the LUSM as a decision support system. It includes consideration of land-use modeling theory, fire modeling and disturbance in the wildland-urban interface, historical land-use change and its relation to active land management, hydrologic modeling and the impact of urbanization as related to the Lahontan Regional Water Quality Control Board's recently developed Total Maximum Daily Load report for the basin, and biodiversity in urbanizing areas.
