| Summary: | (GCW), a neotropical migrant dependent on a highly analysis techniques, I investigated several parameters classification characteristics appropriate for assessing contiguous patches of GCW habitat and attempt to existing habitat were examined for relationships to bird Geographical Information System (GIS) and spatial habitat loss and fragmentation. This study focused on how spatial structure affected the habitat condition of landscape mosaic created by urban development to study matrix. Habitat patch size and pattern, habitat minimize road density in areas adjacent to GCW habitat. past and present declines of the Goldencheeked Warbler planning should focus on maintaining the largest, most sightings. The results suggest that conservation specialized set of habitat factors. I used the that influence the condition of GCW habitat in an urban the effects of land use change on the GCW. Using a this endangered species. I quantified the habitat topographic position, and road density adjacent to Wild species in human populated areas face continuous |
