Modeling Macroroughness Contribution to Fish Habitat Suitability Curves [PDF]
AbstractImproved water management strategies necessitate a solid understanding of environmental impacts associated with various flow release policies. Habitat suitability models use hydrodynamic simulations to generate weighted usable area curves, which are useful in characterizing the ecological suitability of flow release rules. However, these models

The use of habitat suitability modelling for seagrass: A review
Coastal ecosystems, including coral reefs, mangroves, and seagrass, are in global decline. Mitigation approaches include restoration and other managed recovery interventions. To maximise success, these should be guided by an understanding of the environmental niche and geographic limits of foundational species.

Modelled habitat suitability of fungi in floodplains
To maximize restoration efforts, knowledge on habitat key structures and potential for species occurrence is crucial for conservation. Contemporary protected areas such as national parks and nature reserves can provide refugia for fungal species. Still, the relative importance of single areas might vary across species, especially as they might have ...

Setting Priorities in River Management Using Habitat Suitability Models [PDF]
Worldwide river systems are under pressure from human development. River managers need to identify the most important stressors in a stream basin, to propose effective management interventions for river restoration. In the European Union, the Water Framework Directive proposes the ecological status as the management endpoint for these interventions ...
