Documenting their habitat use provides the spatial data necessary for evaluating the impacts of land-use practices, such as logging and prescribed burns, on their distribution and survivorship. Using quantitative models with habitat descriptors, I predicted bat activity for Crater Lake and Redwoods National Parks. I collected activity data with acoustic...
