Code for a spatially interpolated integrated population model applied to simulations of spatially autocorrelated Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) population data
April 22, 2024
This repository contains R code to:
1. Simulate spatially autocorrelated count and demographic data for 10 populations using mean and process variance estimates from a long-term (1938–2011), range-wide meta-analysis of Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) population dynamics (Taylor et al., 2012).
2. Fit a spatially interpolated integrated population model (SIIPM) to the simulated data after removing demographic data from a single population.

Geographic principles applied to population dynamics: A spatially interpolated integrated population model
A major impediment to wildlife conservation and management, from a quantitative perspective, is dealing with high degrees of uncertainty associated with population estimates. Integrated population models (IPMs) can help alleviate that challenge, but they are often limited to narrow spatial or temporal windows owing to the financial and logistical burdens of acquiring requisite datasets.
