שילוב חישה מרחוק עם מודלי הפצת מינים; פלישות מיפוי אשל בעזרת התוכנה עבור דוגמנות Habitat Assisted (SAHM)

We demonstrate the utility of remotely sensed data and the newly developed Software for Assisted Habitat Modeling (SAHM) in predicting invasive species occurrence on the landscape. An ensemble of predictive models produced highly accurate maps of tamarisk (Tamarix spp.) invasion in Southeastern Colorado, USA when assessed with subsequent field validations.
