We used publically available data on duck breeding distribution and recently compiled geospatialdata on upland habitat and environmental conditions to develop a spatially explicitmodel of breeding duck populations across the entire Prairie Pothole Region (PPR). Ourspatial population models were able to identify key areas for duck conservation across thePPR and predict between 62.1 – 79.1% (68.4% avg.) of the variation in duck counts by yearfrom 2002 – 2010. The median difference in observed vs. predicted duck counts at a transectsegment level was 4.6 ducks. Our models are the first seamless spatially explicit modelsof waterfowl abundance across the entire PPR and represent an initial step toward jointconservation...

The Plains and Prairie Potholes Landscape Conservation Cooperative (PPPLCC) encompasses over 1.2 million square kilometers in 3 Canadian Provinces and 7 US States. A main objective of the PPPLCC is to facilitate improved scientific understanding of the effects of broad-scale environmental stressors on plant and animal resources across this extensive region. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) promote broad-scale understanding by providing support for rigorous study, inventory, assessment, and monitoring of the amount and condition of habitat across extensive geographies. Development of coherent, validated GIS data for the PPPLCC region was therefore identified as an important initial step toward accomplishing the...

The National Landcover Database (NLCD) from the United States (2001) and the Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC) (2000), and a classified Landsat TM scene to fill the gap between the US and Canada were mosaicked together. Landsat images from June or July 2000-2002 were used to be consistent with timing of other data layers. Landcover across the layers were crosswalked and standardized into 5 classes: crop, grassland, other/non-habitat, woody vegetation and water/wetlands.
