| Project Abstract: |
The research utilizes a team approach to address the broad goal of producing a predictive model for introduction, establishment and spread of exotic plants in the Great Lakes Network of the NPS. Objective 1: Produce GIS layers for each of the exotic plant species listed. Objective 2: Develop a predictive model with enables generation of maps to describe the areas at highest risk of introduction, establishment and spread of each plant species at each site. Objective 3: Test and validate the predictive model. |
