Graham and White River Penstemon Distribution Assessment

 

Upon completion of the project, species distribution maps containing the probability of occurrence will be provided in raster format. Additionally, a report detailing the methods and results, coupled with all datasets used within the habitat assessment tools will be provided. This information will be used to assist developers and agencies avoid areas of potential conflict with listed species in the planning process of future oil and gas development. Task 1: Complete maximum entropy analysis on each of the species listed above. Task 2: Conduct secondary general-linear techniques, such as logistic regression, or clustering techniques, like random forests as time and data allow. Task 3: Provide species distribution maps containing probability of occurrence in raster format. Task 4: Provide a report detailing the methods and results, coupled with all datasets used within the habitat assessment tool.
