LAND MANAGEMENT ISSUES


Managing natural resources on a single installation
How to use ecological models to help manage a species (or community) of conservation concern on a single installation.
Managing natural resources across multiple installations
How to use ecological models to plan management strategies for a threatened or endangered species at more than one installation.
Identifying critical habitat
GIS-based habitat models can provide a cost-effective means to locate areas likely to contain habitat for species or communities of conservation concern.
Predicting the results of training and land management actions
Ecological models can predict how training and other land management actions may affect the habitat for species or communities of conservation concern.
Focusing monitoring activities
Habitat models identify locations likely to contain habitat, so that monitoring activities can be focused on those areas most likely to contain the species or communities of concern.
