Connecting Habitat Across New Jersey

Mapping & Guidance Document Core Teams Meeting Ten

January 21st, 9:30am – 12:30pm

Assunpink Wildlife Management Area, Main Office

AGENDA

Meeting Goals: Finalize inputs needed to proceed with core delineations and use input decisions to group species into movement/habitat guilds

Outline where we are in the mapping development

Overview of inputs needed for core delineations

Review, discuss, finalize inputs for each species:

o Home range sizes

o Roads and railroads as barriers for species movements within core areas

o Habitat associations (i.e. generalist vs. riparian/wetlands dependent)

Break -- (Compilation of final inputs to preliminarily group species)

Evaluate and finalize species groupings

Next steps

Connectivity Mapping Goals:

Identify and characterize habitat cores and corridors that are critical for the long-term viability of terrestrial wildlife populations. The identified corridors are ones that:

 Provide live-in and move-through habitat  [Serve to reconnect existing protected areas]*  Enable species to meet basic daily and seasonal biological requirements (e.g. finding food, mates, cover)  Provide for dispersal and recolonization of populations  Enable redistribution of populations in response to climatic, environmental, and population level changes  Facilitate genetic exchange among populations  Consider connectivity across the state border

[]* This is a placeholder for a core areas definition. We have not yet decided if the areas we connected will necessarily all be protected areas.

Core – An area that meets all annual life history needs (foraging/prey, cover, reproduction) for terrestrial species.

Input needs for each species:

• Home range sizes

• Roads and railroads as barriers for species movements within core areas

• Habitat associations (i.e. generalist vs. riparian/wetlands dependent) Home Range Sizes

Following is a compiled list of average home range sizes based on input from Division of Fish & Wildlife species experts.

Following is a description of types of roads and railroads for which GIS data is available to us. We gave a first shot at indicating whether each type serves as a barrier to movements within core areas for each of the species.

Roads – NJ_Roadway_Network Highways (subtype 1,2,3,4) County (subtype 5, 6) Local (subtype 7)

Railroads Passenger Freight Abandoned *looking into differentiating ones with and without rails

See the following map of roads and railroads in the Highlands region. You’ll want to open up the layers by clicking this icon: on the left side of the page. You can then view or not view layers by clicking this icon:

More importantly we have also included a couple of photo examples. Also using Google Maps Street View could be beneficial as well to help visualize an animal’s perspective in attempting to cross these linear structures.

To model habitat, we’re going to take two approaches. One of the approaches (aka Generalist) is using the familiar Land Use Land Cover types as defined below. The other approach (aka Riparian/Wetlands) takes advantage of our existing riparian layer that we use in the Landscape Project 3.1. Specifics are provided below. Also find a map of the two approaches. We gave a first shot at assigning species to one of two approaches.
