North Carolina Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit Painted Bunting Habitat Conversion Risk Dataset

Landcover conversion is a common threat to wildlife habitat and this is no exception for the Painted Bunting in coastal North Carolina. One source of this threat is the conversion of maritime forest resulting from pressure potentially applied by use of forest biomass as a renewable energy source. The combination of encounter histories and projected habitat loss (to the year 2050) was used to model this threat to Painted Bunting habitat (maritime forest) in coastal North Carolina, in order to inform potential conservation efforts. U.S. Geological Survey Gap Analysis Program- Land Cover Data v2.2 (https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/item/527d09f1e4b0850ea0518313) was used as the initial time stamp against which...
