Summary
Habitat and demographic details and projected results from dynamic-landscape metapopulation models used to projected effects of climate change and forest restoration scenarios on the habitat availability and population growth of focal wildlife species in the Ozark Highlands. Habitat availability is described by the carrying capacity (K) of each species. Projections for base scenarios with no conservation are discussed prior to results for restoration scenarios to better understand their impact. Population responses to restoration scenarios are presented both for individual climate models and pooled across climate models.
