Species Occupancy and Distribution Baselines in NSW RFA Regions Webapp

The Forest Monitoring Steering Committee commissioned the University of New England and the NSW Departments of Primary Industries and Planning, Industry and Environment to deliver baselines, drivers and trends for species occupancy and distribution in NSW forests across tenures. Over 15 leading scientists formed a project team lead by Nick Reid.This work delivered a comprehensive suite of models to baseline species occupancy and distribution and help explore drivers in change.Find out more about the project here.This webapp contains those models of a selected group of vulnerable flora & fauna.Model Information:Maximum Entropy (Maxent) & Species Occupancy Model (SOM) outputs are combination outputs dependent on known species occurrence in the landscape, the species relationship with environmental variables (covariates) such as temperature, rainfall and topography; and its predicted occurrence based on covariate analysis. Maxent models do not predict actual occupancy, but rather habitat suitability, while SOMs predict actual occupancy. confounding factors such as inter-species competition, geographical barriers and disturbance events play a significant role in species occurrence, and are not considered in Maxent or SOM.To find more information about the models and processes involved, or to access the underlying data, click here.________For a User Guide for this Webapp, follow this link:User GuideTo leave feedback on your experience with this web site or its data, follow this link:NRC Contact PageTo leave feedback on your experience with the Spatial Collaboration Portal, follow this link (account creation required):Spatial Collaboration Portal Feedback________This webapp and associated webapps are part of the Forest Monitoring & Improvement Program.Metadata
