Software for a national model of bat fatalities at wind facilities (version 1.0.0) Software for a national model of bat fatalities at wind facilities (version 1.0.0)
This repository contains the code for modeling and analysis of bat fatality data at a sample of wind turbine facilities across the United States. The software is written in R and includes hierarchical Bayesian n-mixture models implemented in JAGS to predict bat fatalities across wind facilities retrospectively from 2001-2024 and under future potential wind development build-out scenarios...
Generalized Linear Mixed Models for Analyzing Wild Turkey Summer Sighting Data Generalized Linear Mixed Models for Analyzing Wild Turkey Summer Sighting Data
Observation of wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) are collected by many state wildlife agencies to monitor reproduction. This code demonstrates how to use generalized linear models to account for when and where data are collected, as well as how to combine data from multiple states to estimate parameters when data may be missing in some years. In addition, the code shows how to test for a...
optimTFE optimTFE
**OptimTFE** is a spatial decision-support tool designed to help conservation practitioners identify priority recovery areas for species/taxonomic groups based on known location data, habitat suitability values, and other relevant data inputs. The optimTFE tool was developed to improve transparency, flexibility, and expert engagement throughout the spatial conservation prioritization...

North American Bat Monitoring Program: R Data Connection Package (version 1.2.1) North American Bat Monitoring Program: R Data Connection Package (version 1.2.1)
The North American Bat Monitoring Program: R Data Connection Package can be used to extract and upload data to the NABat Monitoring Program through the GQL API. This software is written as a wrapper around the NABat GQL API. Documentation for the database and API can be found at https://sciencebase.usgs.gov/. This code includes the ability to reformat NABat data, upload NABat data...
Software code for simulating elk and chronic wasting disease dynamics on the National Elk Refuge (version 2.0) Software code for simulating elk and chronic wasting disease dynamics on the National Elk Refuge (version 2.0)
This software release contains the code necessary to run the chronic wasting disease (CWD) and elk population models used to support the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service decision on whether to continue to continue supplemental feeding of elk on the National Elk Refuge (NER). The models allow for five different management alternatives: continued feeding, reduced feeding, increased hunting...
