Modelling and Mapping Species Distributions

MAP GALLERY  |  Boreal Song Birds
Map Galleries
Boreal songbirds are likely to shift their distributions northward and upslope in response to rapid climate change over the next century. This map gallery contains detailed projections of distribution and density for 80 boreal-breeding songbirds based on current and projected future climate, current land use, and topography.

MAP GALLERY  |  Alberta’s Rare Plant Species
Map Galleries
The Alberta Species Conservation Atlas contains predictive maps of the distribution and potential habitat of the province’s rare species under current and projected future climates (and more!).

Map Galleries
The distribution of Alberta’s regional ecosystems, such as the Grassland, Parkland and Boreal, is strongly linked to climate factors like temperature, growing season length, and moisture balance. Because of these close connections, the distribution of these ecosystems has responded to past changes in climate, and will respond to future climate change as well.
