Central Hardwoods Bird Conservation Region Assessment
- characterize the Central Hardwood Bird Conservation Region in terms of land cover
- use GIS to quantitatively identify those areas most significant for bird conservation
- integrate and deliver information for practical use by planners and managers
N/A
The Central Hardwoods region, including the Ozark Highlands, may be a source for populations of forest birds, and also contains important habitat for species that live in non-forested habitat. MoRAP is working with the American Bird Conservancy and others to help identify the most significant areas for bird conservation in the region.
We provided GIS data for regional meetings of The Central Hardwoods Bird Conservation Region planning group. Bird conservation planning is an iterative process, and is being coordinated by the American Bird Conservancy for this area, which included the Ozark Highlands and Interior Low Plateaus to the east.
