Habitat availability for African great apes

by Jessica Junker

This first continent-wide analysis models suitable environmental conditions (SEC) for African great ape survival over a 20-year period, assesses the relative importance of factors influencing SEC distribution, and quantifies rates of SEC loss over time. SEC is defined as a measure of environmental and human impact variables, including human population density, poverty, distance to roads, precipitation, temperature, distance to rivers, forest cove ...(continue reading)

This first continent-wide analysis models suitable environmental conditions (SEC) for African great ape survival over a 20-year period, assesses the relative importance of factors influencing SEC distribution, and quantifies rates of SEC loss over time. SEC is defined as a measure of environmental and human impact variables, including human population density, poverty, distance to roads, precipitation, temperature, distance to rivers, forest cover and distance to forest nearby.

The method of production of the original data.
Hover to see a suggestion for a minimum description.
We extracted 15,051 presence localities collected between 1995 and 2010 from 68 different areas surveyed across the African ape range. We combined a maximum entropy algorithm and logistic regression to relate ape presence information to environmental and human impact variables from the 1990s with a resolution of 5x5 km across the entire ape range. We then made SEC projections for the 2000s using updated human impact variables.
