Habitat Suitability Index Models: Black Bear, Upper Great Lakes Region
Lynn L. Rogers, Arthur W. Allen
1987, FWS/OBS 82/10.144
A review and synthesis of existing information were used to develop a Habitat Suitability Index (HSI) model for the black bear (Ursus americanus). The model consolidates habitat use information into a framework appropriate for field application, and is scaled to produce an index between 0.0 (unsuitable habitat) to 1.0 (optimum...
