<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>MoosePriorityHabitat [MOPH] is an ESRI SDE Feature Class showing habitat types associated with the food and cover requirements of moose. Significant loss of these habitats would change moose distribution and/or would adversely affect the population. These habitat types include but are not limited to willow dominated riparian areas, sub-climax coniferous forest mixed with shrub lands, and dense climax coniferous forests.</SPAN></P><P><SPAN> MooseConcentrationArea [MOCA] is an ESRI SDE Feature Class showing that part of the range of a species where densities are 200% higher than the surrounding area during a specific season. </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>MooseOverallRange [MOOV] is an ESRI SDE Feature Class showing the area which encompasses all known seasonal activity areas within the observed range of a population of moose. </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>MooseSummerRange [MOSR] is an ESRI SDE Feature Class showing that part of the overall range where 90% of the individuals are located during the summer months. This summer time frame will be delineated with specific start/end dates for each moose population within the state (i.e.: May 1 to Sept 15). Summer range is not necessarily exclusive of winter range. </SPAN></P><P><SPAN>MooseWinterRange [MOWR] is an ESRI SDE Feature Class showing that part of the overall range where 90% of the individuals are located during the winter months. This winter time frame will be delineated with specific start/end dates for each moose population within the state (i.e.: November 15 to April 1). </SPAN></P><P><SPAN><SPAN>This information was derived from field personnel. A variety of data capture techniques were used including drawing on mylar overlays at 1:50,000 scale USGS county mapsheets and implementation of the SmartBoard Interactive Whiteboard using stand-up, real-time digitizing at various scales (Cowardin, M., M. Flenner. March 2003. Maximizing Mapping Resources. GeoWorld 16(3):32-35).</SPAN></SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>This wildlife distribution map is a product and property of Colorado Parks and Wildlife, a division of the Colorado Department of Natural Resources. Care should be taken in interpreting these data. Written documents may accompany this map and should be referenced. The information portrayed on these maps should not replace field studies necessary for more localized planning efforts. The data are gathered at a variety of scales; discrepancies may become apparent at larger scales. The areas portrayed here are graphic representations of phenomena that are difficult to reduce to two dimensions. Animal distributions are fluid; animal populations and their habitats are dynamic.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
