AESME Lot 9: Modelling landscape scale species responses to AES

The aim of this project is to investigate the feasibility of spatially modelling landscape scale species responses to Agri-Environment Schemes (AES) density in unsurveyed National Character Areas (NCAs). Building on data collected as part of a landscape scale species monitoring project (LM0465), this project should explore the role of additional datasets (e.g. national citizen science surveys and environmental predictor variables), alternative statistical methods, as well as potential validation techniques.
