| description:
|
An EO is an area of land and/or water in which a species ornatural community is, or was, present. An EO should have practical conservationvalue for the Element as evidenced by potential continued (or historical)presence and/or regular recurrence at a given location.Consistency in EOs throughout the range of an element isachieved through the application of standard minimum data criteria and rules ofseparation specific to that element or group of similar elements. Documentation on NatureServe's EO methodology standards is available at www.natureserve.org"Sensitive element occurrences" arealso locations of species that are rare (or of conservation concern) but inthese instances the precise location details cannot be distributed without duecause. In most cases these locations are not freely available because thespecies are legally listed under the Alberta Wildlife Act, or under the federalSpecies at Risk Act, or are of particular concern to Alberta Fish &Wildlife.It is important to recognize that the term"sensitive" applies only to the spatial data. It is not to beconfused with the Alberta General Status Rank designation of Sensitive(assigned by Fish & Wildlife) or with a specific ACIMS/NatureServe statusrank (Srank) that is applied to a species or community. The term"sensitive" does not imply any assessment of viability of theoccurrence in question, and is not an evaluation of how susceptible theoccurrence may be to disturbance. |
