Ecology and Vulnerability Ruffed Grouse

Displayed are DSL Landscape Capability (LC) data for the Ruffed Grouse for 2010 (DSL Current) and the future (DSL 2080). LC incorporates habitat, climate, and prevalence to estimate suitable and accessible conditions for the species. LC values can't be compared across species. 

Species distribution from USGS GAP.

Also displayed are predicted shifts in Ruffed Grouse habitat due to climate change. Brighter colors mean more ruffed grouse habitat in 2080 under an average of 3 climate models with a lower emissions scenario (moderate climate change) and a high emissions scenario (severe climate change). For more information, see the Climate Change Bird Atlas (CCBA).
