[PCA] Decision Support Tool for Wetland and Grassland Conservation [to benefit ducks - but that counts!]

[De Angelis, Patricia]

Declining population and loss of habitat has made the mottled duck a
species of concern among state and federal agencies and conservation
organizations.

"Because the loss and degradation of nesting and brood-rearing habitats are
believed to be largely responsible for historical declines, conservation
and management of habitats for mottled ducks is a priority concern for area
conservation partners. "

Ducks Unlimited collaborated with other Gulf Coast conservation partners to
develop a Decision Support Tool which can help managers prioritize wetlands
(brood-rearing habitat) and grasslands (nesting habitat) for conservation
and restoration efforts.
