The Habitat Suitability for Tamarisk Invasion in the State of New Mexico
|
The Invasive Species Forecasting System (ISFS) is a partnership between NASA and The US Geological Survey (USGS). The ISFS combines NASA Earth observations and statistical models to enhance USGS capabilities to map, monitor and predict the spread of significant invasive plant species. This video shows the habitat suitability for a Tamarisk invasion in the state of New Mexico. Red indicates areas that are highly suitable. Yellow indicates areas which are less suitable, and grey are areas which are not suitable. New Mexico is vulnerable to a Tamarisk invasion with 13.55% of the states area classified as 95% suitable for tamarisk habitat.
