Knowledge graph centered on GIS-based species range mapping (Limnephilidae) with 11 nodes and 25 connections. Top connected: elevational gradients, climate-induced range shifts, pond hydroperiod, slit emergence traps, instar staging.

Description

Mapping species distributions across elevational gradients using abundance data, GPS coordinates, and digital elevation models. Includes range core calculation using abundance-weighted elevation averages.

Typical Equipment

  • RStudio ver. 1.1.453
  • ArcMap 10.4.1
  • Trimble Juno 3B GPS unit
  • 10x10m digital elevation model (DEM)

Output Measurements

  • elevational ranges
  • permanence ranges
  • abundance-weighted range cores
