The Conservation and Analysis Unit
The Conservation and Analysis Unit (CAU) conducts scientific analysis and research to address conservation questions and produce products for use in conservation decision-making, with a focus on landscape-level spatial analysis.
We seek to further our knowledge and understanding of priority conservation areas through habitat suitability modeling, species range and distribution modeling, climate change vulnerability assessment, habitat connectivity modeling, and the compilation and integration of other landscape datasets.
Projects include:
- Sierra Nevada Foothills Connectivity Modeling Project
- Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment
- Areas of Conservation Emphasis (ACE-II)
- California Wildlife Habitat Relationships (CWHR)
