The application and usefulness of B-Cubed’s algorithms and software are demonstrated through the project’s four case studies, which consider a variety of environments, regions and challenges to maximise their relevance to stakeholders and policy-makers and test the extremes of the tools. They cover different locations varying in geographical extent, biodiversity richness and data availability.
Objectives
In this case study, the B-Cubed workflows will be tested for Flanders, a region of Europe where species occurrence data are abundant.
The implemented indicators can be subdivided into:
Extra attention will be given to a comparison between Natura 2000 versus non-Natura 2000 habitats when applying these indicators, calculation and interpretation of indicator uncertainty, and taking into account survey effort.
