"Understanding Occupancy Patterns in a Low-density
Population of Gopher Tortoises, Gopherus polyphemus"
Wednesday, March 22, 2017 (1:00 PM - 2:00 PM ET)
Eglin Air Force Base (AFB), Florida, is considered a
regionally important landscape for Gopher Tortoise conservation. During the
next DoD Natural Resources webinar, Steve Goodman with the Virginia Tech
Department of Fish and Wildlife Conservation will provide an overview of a DoD
Legacy Program project (14-762) that evaluated the distribution of Gopher
Tortoises on Eglin AFB using an occupancy approach relative to available
habitat type and distance from historically occupied areas. The webinar will
also describe efforts to determine if site occupancy is an effective technique
for assessing Gopher Tortoise population trends over time.
