Habitat suitability (HS) modeling relates a species’ potential presence/absence to a set of environmental variables. because of stochastic or demographic population fluctuations, relating abundance to environment is difficult and generally requires time-series of population-density data. Here, I propose an approach to compute relative capacity of a set of habitat classes. I defined relative cap...
متن کاملUncertainty in Various Habitat Suitability Models and Its Impact on Habitat Suitability Estimates for Fish
Species distribution models (SDMs) are extensively used to project habitat suitability of species in stream ecological studies. Owing to complex sources of uncertainty, such models may yield projections with varying degrees of uncertainty. To better understand projected spatial distributions and the variability between habitat suitability projections, this study uses five SDMs that are based on...
متن کاملEstimating relative risk of within-lake aquatic plant invasion using combined measures of recreational boater movement and habitat suitability
Effective monitoring, prevention and impact mitigation of nonindigenous aquatic species relies upon the ability to predict dispersal pathways and receiving habitats with the greatest risk of establishment. To examine mechanisms affecting species establishment within a large lake, we combined observations of recreational boater movements with empirical measurements of habitat suitability represe...
متن کاملA GIS-based multi-scale approach to habitat suitability modeling
The aim of this study is to develop a method by means of which it is possible to produce georeferenced ecological information about the habitat requirements of different species. The integrated habitat suitability index approach includes the steps of constructing habitat suitability models, producing data needed in models, evaluating of target areas based on habitat factors, and combining vario...
متن کاملAssessing the carrying capacity of Perinereis aibuhitensis in a Chinese estuarine wetland using a GIS-based habitat suitability index model
Increasing attention is being paid to estuarine benthic community conservation and restoration globally. In this study, a GIS-based habitat suitability index (HSI) model was utilized to estimate Perinereis aibuhitensis (Grube, 1878) carrying capacity in estuarine wetlands of the Zhimai River, eastern China. Eight parameters were investigated, including sand content, salinity, pH, and petroleum ...
