Landscape Features and Panthers in Florida
Abstract
We used a geographic information system (GIS) to document spatial associations of Florida panthers, land cover, and other geographical features. Panther radio locations (n = 14,548) occurred in hardwood hammock, mixed hardwood swamp, and cypress swamp in greater proportion than in randomly positioned points (n = 8500). Panther radio locations occurred less frequently in agricultural, barren, and shrub and brush land cover. Panther home ranges consisted of a combination of preferred and avoided cover types, including freshwater marsh, cypress swamp, hardwood swamp, and agricultural land. These cover types accounted for 62% of the area in panther home ranges. We used correlation and discriminant function analyses to assess the potential importance of 20 landscape features. These panther locations were effectively distinguished from random points using four landscape variables: (1) the size of a contiguous patch of preferred land cover; (2) the proximity to preferred land cover; (3) the diversity of three preferred cover types within a window 120 × 120 m, and (4) the matrix within which preferred cover types occurred. Eighty-three percent of the panther locations and 81.9% of the random points were correctly classified based on a linear model constructed using these four variables. Large, contiguous areas of preferred land-cover types were especially important because 96% of all panther locations occurred within 90 m of preferred land cover. The average preferred forest patch si…

In the citing paper
“To our knowledge, this is the first model to demonstrate the importance of forest edge and water depth in panther habitat use, although other studies have examined related factors such as forest patch size [5, 7, 9, 36] and water regime (duration of flooding) [10].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
