• Research Questions:1. Does the addition of waveform LiDAR data
improve the ability of multispectral image processing to classify habitat types?
2. Can a model of successional dynamics coupled with LiDAR-derived vegetation structure information help predict past and future habitat trends?
3. To what degree do climate changes and habitat trends affect breeding bird range shifts, and can we effective model future bird dynamics?

Recent trends in NY and US Northeast mapped at 4km resolution (1980-2009)
Based on PRISM (Daly et al. 2002) and NRCC (DeGaetano & Belcher 2007)
Theil-Sen and linear estimations
Seasonal and spatial variability in recent temperature changes
Tmin warming at greater rate and more seasonally consistent
Tmax trends variable by month
Trend maps are heterogeneous, with patches of warming, stability and cooling
Results: Climate change mapping
