Understanding Geomorphological Units for Habitat Refugia and Management Decisions

This document outlines the concept of geomorphological units, defined as landscape facets shaped by geological and physiographic variables. These units, represented as polygons, provide a valuable approach to identify potential habitat refugia, essential for biodiversity conservation. Additionally, geomorphological units enable the downscaling of coarser-scale results, making them more applicable for effective management decisions. The SSURGO AWC Esri package can facilitate the analysis and visualization of these units in landscape management and ecological studies.

Presentation Transcript

  1. 2. Geomorphological units (“landscape facets”) • Units (polygons) on the landscape that are defined by geological and physiographic variables • Offer one way to identify potential habitat refugia • Means to “downscale” coarser-scale results to make relevant for management decisions?

  2. SSURGO AWC (Esri package)
