USGA Summary Points: | Fifty courses were surveyed and data were collected on squirrel abundance (both fox and gray) as well as habitat features such as dominant vegetation types and amount of understory cover. Squirrel locations were marked using a GPS and the data were then integrated with the GIS. Population data from the surveys are currently being combined with landscape metrics derived from the GIS at both patch and landscape scales to build preliminary models of the effects of spatial variables on fox squirrel presence and abundance. An outreach program centered around a website featuring several types of educational media will be developed in 2006. |
