Title
Escambia Bay Area Alligator Gar Habitat Suitability Index (v2) [U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service]
Description
A landscape level AG spawning suitability data layer was developed to screen for landscape level features indicating locations that may be suitable for AG spawning within the Escambia Bay area. Suitability was determined using a combination of inundation frequency, land cover, and thermal characteristics derived from related landscape level analyses (see below). The result for each evaluation was coded to display the predicted suitability for AG spawning using techniques outlined in Allen et. al 2020.https://afspubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/nafm.10433Allen, Y., K. Kimmel, and G. Constant. 2020. Using Remote Sensing to Assess Alligator Gar Spawning Habitat Suitability in the Lower Mississippi River. North American Journal of Fisheries Management 40:580-594.
