The Band-Tailed pigeon is a species of tribal value to California indigenous peoples and has been identified as a focal species for the ACCEL project. This metric identifies the current distribution and abundance of suitable habitat for band-tailed pigeons. Blocks of habitat of 100 acres or larger, which are considered high value to band-tailed pigeons for reproduction, cover, and feeding are included.----------------This raster has been modified from the base 30m version in the following ways:-------- - It has been aggregated from a 30m to a 300m scale by averaging across the 30m values-------- - The normalized values are rescaled based on the full range of potential values, with -1 representing low values, and 1 representing high values. This interpretation reflects concern for the persistence of this species, with higher habitat values considered more favorable.----------------- Unit Of Measure: Binary, 0/1 |
