2012
Summary
The Crown of the Continent Landscape Analysis/Ecological Indicators Project is focused on issues of (i) landscape-scale transboundary GIS data acquisition, integration, and synthesis across the Crown of the Continent Ecosystem; (ii) the production of large-area habitat and connectivity models for select wildlife species that are key indicators of terrestrial and aquatic integrity; and (iii) the dissemination of knowledge, data products, and geospatial tools to managers and collaborators through data portals and outreach programs designed to support effective conservation delivery. Specific activities this year will involve (i) the development of CCE-wide models of grizzly bear (Ursus arctos), wolverine (Gulo gulo), cutthroat trout [...]

Specific activities this year will involve (i) the development of CCE-wide models of grizzly bear (Ursus arctos), wolverine (Gulo gulo), cutthroat trout (Salmo clarki), and bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) occupancy and habitat connectivity; and (ii) the application of Monte Carlo simulations designed to reveal the impact of base-map errors on high-level knowledge products used by resource managers.
