Rebuilding Migratory Flyways Using Directed Conditional Covering
Abstract There has been much recent research on site selection for species preservation, although most of this research has focused on terrestrial plant and animal species. There is increasing evidence that lack of suitable habitat for migratory birds is contributing to their diminishing numbers. We extend the literature of site selection with a specific application to migratory birds. We develop reserve planning models, based on the novel idea of Directed Conditional Covering, to identify “superior” configurations of locations to be included in migratory flyways.
