Selected Habitat Suitability Index Model Evaluations
Papers published in this series record the significant findings resulting from USGS/BRD-sponsored and cospon-sored research programs. They may include extensive data or theoretical analyses. These papers are the in-house counterpart to peer-reviewed journal articles, but with less stringent restrictions on length, tables, or raw data, for example. We encourage authors to publish their findings ...
متن کاملHydraulic Complexity Metrics for Evaluating In-Stream Brook Trout Habitat
A two-dimensional hydraulic model River2D was used to investigate the significance of flow complexity on habitat preferences of brook trout Salvelinus fontinalis) in the high-gradient Staunton River in Shenandoah National Park, Virginia. Two 100-m reaches were modeled where detailed brook trout surveys 10–30-m resolution have been conducted annually since 1997. Spatial hydraulic complexity metr...
متن کاملValidation of a habitat suitability index for oyster restoration
Habitat suitability index (HSI) models provide spatially explicit information on the capacity of a given habitat to support a species of interest, 2 and their prevalence has increased dramatically in recent years. Despite caution that the reliability of HSIs must be validated using independent, 4 quantitative data, most HSIs intended to inform terrestrial and marine species management remain un...

Habitat suitability index (HSI) models provide spatially explicit information on the capacity of a given habitat to support a species of interest, and their prevalence has increased dramatically in recent years. Despite caution that the reliability of HSIs must be validated using independent, quantitative data, most HSIs intended to inform terrestrial and marine species management remain unvali...
متن کاملAssessing Ecoregional-Scale Habitat Suitability Index Models for Priority Landbirds
Emerging methods in habitat and wildlife population modeling promise new horizons in conservation but only if these methods provide robust population–habitat linkages. We used Breeding Bird Survey (BBS) data to verify and validate newly developed habitat suitability index (HSI) models for 40 priority landbird species in the Central Hardwoods and West Gulf Coastal Plain/Ouachitas Bird Conservati...
