Modeled habitat suitability for Erigeron rhizomatus (Zuni fleabane)
This raster presents the final outputs from a VisTrails/SAHM workflow to model the potential distribution of Zuni fleabane (Erigeron rhizomatus) in northwestern New Mexico. These models utilized field data of spatially thinned occurrence locations and random background locations. We included a suite of predictors related to soils, topography, vegetation cover, and geology. Details about both occurrence data and predictor inputs are included in the associated manuscript and Source Info section of this metadata. We developed models using five algorithms with VisTrails: Software for Assisted Habitat Modeling [SAHM 2.1.2] (Morisette et al., 2013), and combined these to create an ensemble of models. The resulting raster depicts potential suitability ranging from 0 - Unsuitable to 4 - highest suitability based on the total number of models in agreement of suitability. For more information on the model creation process and interpretation of the final map, see "Process Step" section.
