Abstract

A workshop on multi-scale species modelling was recently held in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. We reviewed Australian experiences with this type of spatial modelling (including development and validation of different approaches) and current needs, activities and impediments to species modelling in Ontario. Multi-scale species modelling can support regional conservation planning, the design of monitoring activities, forest planning and indicator development. Several recommendations were generated.
