Title
Northwestern Plains: AAF Smoothed (Predicted Area-adjusted Frequency of Golden Eagle Nest Sites) [U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service]
Description
This raster dataset represents predicted Area-adjusted Frequency (Smoothed AAF) of golden eagle nest sites. This surface shows gaussian-smoothed, continuous AAF values, which were estimated from predicted RND and can range from 0-infinity. AAF values <1 represent lower than expected densities of nest sites, and values >1 represent greater than expected densities. AAF values in this raster were smoothed to the approximate scale of golden eagle nesting core-use areas to provide a more biologically relevant depiction of eagle presence relative to breeding habitat. Development of golden eagle RND models are described in Dunk JR, Woodbridge B, Lickfett TM, Bedrosian G, Noon BR, LaPlante DW, et al. (2019) Modeling spatial variation in density of golden eagle nest sites in the western United States. PLoS ONE 14(9): e0223143 (https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0223143). Additional information on model products (including RND and AAF surfaces), and guidance for their use is provided at https://ecos.fws.gov/ServCat/Reference/Profile/112631.
