June 23, 2014 Subteam Meeting (Terrestrial/Wetland): Materials, notes, presentations from the 6/23/2014 subteam meeting

Subteam Meeting Notes 06-23-2014: Discussed the process for incorporating under-represented species into the landscape design process, value of incorporating indices of projected changes to climate niche suitability into final habitat models for representative species, value of incorporating indices of projected direct anthropogenic landscape change (e.g., urban/suburban expansion) into final habitat models for representative species, criteria for weighting among species in the final selection index for the landscape design.
