East Maui, Hawaiʻi input metrics for optimization of climate resilient habitat for native plant species recovery, 2021
Description
Multi-species recovery planning can be a challenging natural resource management task. In collaboration with state and federal agencies, and botanical and technical experts, we developed and tested a multi-step optimization process to assist in identifying the minimum climate resilient habitat for the recovery of multiple threatened, endangered, and at-risk plant species across east Maui.
The dataset presented here includes all metrics used to consider selection of units for the spatial optimization.
