| description | This research paper aimed at
modeling the relations between mammal wildlife species, which spread around
Burdur Lake Basin, with environmental factors and getting habitat suitability
maps on the basis of native species by generalizing acquired models. Field
survey was carried out on 328 sample plots and 3280 sub-sample plots. Traces,
feces and signs belonging to wild boar (Sus scrofa), european hare (Lepus
europaeus), beech marten (Martes foina) and red fox (Vulpes vulpes) were
identified using the transect counts in the Basin. Data from these species was
tested through Jacknife Method by being analyzed with Maximum Entropy (Maxent)
method. Base maps belonging to 20 different environmental variances were used
for wildlife suitability modeling. Habitat suitability maps were prepared for
wild boar (0.77;0,71), brown hare (0.80; 0.74), beech marten (0.86; 0,80), and
red fox (0.87; 0.77) by taking into account of obtained models' education data
set and test data set ROC values. According to obtained models' results; the
relation between wildlife animal species on the study area and topography,
distance to forest village road, elevation, bedrock, smoothness, solar
lightening index, distance to settlement, distance to lake, distance to runnel
and radiation index was detected. In this study, habitat suitability maps based
on relation between wild animals and environmental factors were created. These
maps will be important bases for mammals species to protect and hunting plans
preperation. |
