| | Title | Co-editor of the book: Developing Models for Conservation and Management using |
| | RAMAS GIS |
| | Project Description | We are producing an edited volume with the tentative title Developing Models for Conservation and |
| | Management using RAMAS GIS. Each chapter of the book will describe the application of |
| | RAMAS GIS 4.0 software for performing a metapopulation viability analysis of one species or a |
| | group of closely related species, with the aim of demonstrating how various life history |
| | characteristics of the species are incorporated into the simulation model. This book will be |
| | organized into 6 sections with 5-10 chapters per section. Dr. H. Resit Aktakaya will coordinate |
| | the book and provide technical support for all of the chapters. Each section will be organized by |
| | one of the co-editors: Mark Burgman (plants), Oskar Kindval (invertebrates), Donald Orth (fishes), |
| | Per Sjogren-Gulve (amphibians, reptiles), Jeff Hatfield (birds), and Michael McCarthy (mammals). |
