Quantifying Shark Distribution Patterns and Species-Habitat Associations: Implications of Marine Park Zoning
Quantifying shark distribution patterns and species-specific habitat associations in response to geographic and environmental drivers is critical to assessing risk of exposure to fishing, habitat degradation, and the effects of climate change. The present study examined shark distribution patterns, species-habitat associations, and marine reserve use with baited remote underwater video stations...
متن کاملDiversity and distribution patterns of Solanaceae in Iran: Implications for conservation and habitat management with emphasis on endemism and diversity in SW Asia
The increasing rate of irreversible damages to natural habitats has reinforced the need for gathering biodiversity fundamental data to conservation. Priority setting is the most important step in protection programs. Solanaceae as the the one of important economic families of eudicots distributed throughout North and South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia, and the South Pacific. Up to n...
متن کاملMacrobenthic assemblage structure and distribution at the Boojagh Marine National Park, Southern Caspian Sea, Iran.
Although macrobenthic assemblages are considered as major players in many ecosystems around the world, the ecology of Caspian Sea macrobenthos is currently understudied. This study describes the species composition and quantitative distribution of macrobenthos in the southern Caspian Sea and relates the distribution to seasonal changes at three depths (1, 5 and 10 meters) on the Boojagh Marine ...
متن کاملThe spatial distribution of African savannah herbivores: species associations and habitat occupancy in a landscape context.
Herbivores play an important role in determining the structure and function of tropical savannahs. Here, we (i) outline a framework for how interactions among large mammalian herbivores, carnivores and environmental variation influence herbivore habitat occupancy in tropical savannahs. We then (ii) use a Bayesian hierarchical model to analyse camera trap data to quantify spatial patterns of hab...
متن کاملFish species of greatest conservation need in wadeable Iowa streams: status, habitat associations, and effectiveness of species distribution models
Effective conservation of fish species of greatest conservation need (SGCN) requires an understanding of species-habitat relationships and distributional trends. Thus, modeling the distribution of fish species across large spatial scales may serve as a potentially valuable tool for conservation planning. Our goals were to evaluate the status of 10 Iowa fish SGCN in wadeable Iowa streams and tes...
