Join us for the tenth biennial ICOET conference hosted by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and California Department of Fish and Wildlife, with support from the US DOT Federal Highway Administration.
Habitat loss and fragmentation is currently the primary driver of biodiversity decline. Community forest management and wildlife crossing structures are two common conservation strategies applied to mitigate habitat loss and fragmentation.
This is the dataset for project "Wildlife Connectivity and Which Median Barrier Designs Provide the Most Effective Permeability for Wildlife Crossings" (UCD-CT-FAST-085).
This project collected several primary types of data, including sound measurements at and near highway crossing structures, which were stored as .txt files by the instrument, readable in Excel
This policy brief summarizes findings from research that examined the potential population division effect of highways on coyote populations in the Bay Area and Sierra Nevada foothills.
The webinar featured a presentation from Fraser Shilling and Amanda Coen of UC Davis, who shared and discussed their research results as well as commented on opportunities for mitigating the unintended impacts of roadways on wildlife movement.
