Time-varying greater sage-grouse habitat selection and survival categories in the Bi-State region of California and Nevada
Description
We used movement and demographic data to simultaneously evaluate habitat selection by sage-grouse across multiple seasons, and measures of survival during key reproductive life stages (nesting and brood-rearing) to identify priority habitat by linking resource selection to demographic performance. We calculated and mapped composite selection and survival indices across the Bi-State Distinct Population Segment (DPS) to differentiate productive habitat that supported high selection and survival compared to areas of maladaptive selection where selection and survival were misaligned. We then reclassified the indices into categorical rasters representing different classes of selection (high, moderate, low, non-habitat) and survival (high, moderate, low, and very low).
