bats_all_150

This is a feature set depicting estimated bat activity level modeled using the Great Lakes bat acoustic dataset (downloadable from https://www.fws.gov/radar/acoustic/index.html and also available on the BatAmp platform). A series of spatio-temporal models were built with decision tree regression on various spatial covariates (land cover, distance from physiographic features, geography) and temporal covariates (weather, time of night, time of season) with bat pass counts (at locations specified in the Bat Sites point layer) as the response. The covariate-specific responses identified by the models were then used to predict bat pass rates across the region based on spatial characteristics, under a set of static temporal conditions associated with above-average bat activity levels. The values of each shape indicate the predicted activity level on a relative scale, taking a categorical value from a range of 24 different values. The activity levels depicted represent all bats combined (all species). A thorough description of the modeling methodology can be provided in the manuscript "Spatial models of acoustic data identify Great Lakes coasts and northern forests as bat activity hotspots" by Heist et al. (available on request from FWS Radar Project [fws.gov/radar] or Kevin Heist [kevinwheist@gmail.com])

FWS R2 NWRS Attwater prairie-chicken potential high quality habitat

In December 2020, the Service assessed woody vegetation encroachment throughout the historic range of Attwater’s prairie-chicken using remotely-sensed data. This assessment used the 2016 National Land Cover Database derived from Landsat imagery (Homer et al. 2020) and the 2019 Global Forest Canopy Height layer derived from satellite-based lidar (Potapov et al. 2020). Multiple studies have found that tree canopy cover is negatively associated with use by greater prairie-chickens for booming grounds and nest sites (Merrill et al. 1999, Niemuth 2005, Gregory et al. 2011, Matthews et al. 2013, Hovick et al. 2015), and 2% tree cover is a level beyond which use for mating and nesting declines abruptly or ceases. Based on this, the Service mapped areas delineated as shrub/scrub, herbaceous, or hay/pasture and having <2% canopy cover taller than 3 m within 1 km. The largest patch of this potential high-quality habitat consisted of 41,877 acres within the Goliad County Study Site. At the Austin-Colorado County Study Site which includes the Attwater Prairie Chicken National Wildlife Refuge, 8,700 of the 58,188 acres (15%) met these criteria; much of the refuge did not meet the criteria due to tall woody vegetation along the San Bernard River and Coushatta Creek. Additional large patches meeting the criteria were located north of Anahuac National Wildlife Refuge (30,030 acres) and west of the Whitmire Unit of Aransas National Wildlife Refuge (16,632 acres). This assessment reaffirmed that the Goliad County Study Site retains the greatest extent of potential high quality habitat and provided a map of areas to evaluate as potential future introduction sites.

ACJV_NAWCAdata_2021_state_split

Conservation through NAWCA – 30 Years of Success What is NAWCA? The North American Wetlands Conservation Act (NAWCA) is a U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS) grant program that provides matching funds to organized partnerships to protect, restore, and enhance lands that benefit wetland-associated migratory birds and other wildlife. By protecting and restoring wetlands and uplands, NAWCA supports intact, functioning ecosystems, which provide many services to society such as clean drinking water and flood protection. These direct economic benefits support multi-billion dollar industries, including tourism, commercial fisheries, forestry, and agriculture. Also, many NAWCA projects provide public access and support important traditions such as hunting, fishing, birdwatching, family farming, and cattle ranching.

Maine DMR Atlantic Salmon Habitat

UPDATED: March 21, 2019 with data through the 2018 survey year. This coverage was developed from field surveys conducted on the mainstem and selected tributaries of the Aroostook, Dennys, Ducktap, East Machias, Kennebec, Machias, Passagassawakeag, Penobscot, Pleasant, Presumpscot, Saco, Sheepscot, St. George, Tunk and Union Rivers in Maine by staff of the Maine Dept. of Marine Resources - Division of Sea Run Fisheries and Habitat. These surveys were conducted to identify important Atlantic salmon habitat including spawning and rearing areas. The majority of the survey data was collected using Trimble Pro, Pro-XL and GeoExplorer3 receivers and survey files were differentially corrected to provide 2-5 meter accuracy. Surveys for some reaches were collected with minimal or no GPS control points and the attributes were overlaid on a stream centerline created using either a GPS-acquired line, a line derived from MEGIS/USGS 1:24,000 hydrography data, or a line drawn as a centerline based on MEGIS digital orthophotography. The dataset includes information on habitat categories and areas, and an indication of spawning and rearing potential. This data is referred to as Level 3, or detailed habitat survey data, to be contrasted with the Level 2 habitat data which contains the most detailed data for individual habitat units.

FLORIDA FOREVER BOT PROJECTS (layer name FFBOT): This is a polygon data layer for Florida Forever Board of Trustees (BOT) projects (formerly known as CARL projects). This data layer is site-based and contains boundaries of all Florida Forever BOT projects approved by the State's Acquisition and Restoration Council as of December 8, 2021. These lands have been proposed for acquisition because of outstanding natural resources, opportunity for natural resource-based recreation, or historical and archaeological resources. However, these areas may not be currently managed for their resource value. Portions of these projects may have already been acquired by the State and/or its acquisition partners.
Trend Development 2070

This dataset contains a representation of 2010 developed lands used in the Florida 2070 project. Florida 2070 and its companion project Water 2070 were a joint effort of 1000 Friends of Florida, the University of Florida's GeoPlan Center and the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. The work was completed in December 2016. Florida 2070 produced three land use/population distribution scenarios Baseline 2010, Trend 2070 and Alternative 2070. The two 2070 scenarios are based on a population projection derived from data produced by the Florida Bureau of Economic and Business Research. This projection suggests approximately 15 million more people will live in Florida in 2070 than did in 2010. The Baseline 2010 captures the patterns of land use and associated population distribution that existed in 2010. Trend 2070 captures a potential pattern of land use and associated population distribution for 2070, should all new development occur in greenfields at the same gross urban density as was present in each county in 2010. Alternative 2070 captures a potential pattern of land use and associated population distribution for 2070 that assumes increased levels of redevelopment of existing urban areas, increased gross urban densities in greenfields over those of 2010, and protection for some agricultural and natural lands. Water 2070 uses the three Florida 2070 scenarios to estimate development and agriculture demand for each census block expressed in gallons per day per acre.

Overview of Spatial Design Goals and Process: A key principle of Landscape Conservation Design is that “Stakeholders design landscape configurations that promote resilient and sustainable social-ecological systems” (Campellone et al, 2018). From Campellone et al: (2018): “A beneficial aspect of stakeholder engagement in spatial design is the development of a deeper trust that the models used to identify priorities integrate their interests with other information and knowledge, which furthers social learning and collective agreement on resource allocation and landscape objectives (Melillo et al., 2014). Overall, the co-development of a spatial design helps organize landscape elements while maintaining and improving stakeholder buy-in (De Groot, Alkemade, Braat, Hein, &amp; Willemen, 2009; Melillo et al., 2014).”Analytical Question: Create a prototype landscape design that integrates multiple values on the landscape including wildlife conservation, forest and agriculture production, recreation, cultural and human health. The prototype will be created based upon readily available data. This analysis will be used to understand landscape-scale conservation and working landscape priorities, while incorporating other important values. The blueprint will be used to represent a sustainable landscape in the future. We can include social network perspective as part of a potential suite of design products, such as implementation capacity.Desired Outcome: A map or maps that represents a balance of multiple values on the landscape, with a focus on conservation and working landscape values.
