  • Pine species distributions in the Madrean Sky Islands

Pine species distributions in the Madrean Sky Islands

Pine species distributions in the Madrean Sky Islands

About

The maps included in this gallery were developed as part of the following project:
Contemporary fire regimes in the Madrean Archipelago Ecoregion / Regímenes de incendios contemporáneos en la ecorregión del archipiélago Madrean.

Species distribution models are available for five pine species (Pinus strobiformis Engelm.; P. arizonica Engelm.; P. discolor D.K.Bailey & Hawksw. (P. cembroides var. bicolor Little); P. engelmannii Carrière; P. chihuahuana Engelm. (P. leiophylla var. chihuahuana Shaw).

Two models of predicted probability for each species will be included in the gallery via link to ScienceBase, 1) models with terrain and bioclimatic predictors (1 km resolution), and 2) models with terrain and NDVI seasonal predictors (30 m resolution).

Data and code used to develop the models are available: https://github.com/HaireLab/madrean-pines

The resources below are metadata records that are housed on the USGS ScienceBase site (https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/) You will not be able to use these data sets directly within Data Basin. However, you can discover the data sets, and for many records, you can download or be linked to a download site for the data. In the future, we will be adding support for importing compatible data directly into Data Basin.

Sandra Haire
Research Landscape Ecologist with Haire Laboratory for Landscape Ecology

Using the principals of landscape ecology, I study how disturbance creates spatial patterns and influences ecological processes. My research topics include the influence of management, climate, and topography on fire regimes; identification of climate and fire refugia; and understanding the...
