GCN - Strategic Opportunity Areas (South and East Yorkshire)
Summary
This dataset identifies areas where the addition of new ponds would benefit Great Crested Newt populations. The core areas contain a pond density of 2+ ponds and are located within a 1km square where great crested newt presence has been predicted. Fringe areas contain a pond density of 1 and are located within a 1km square where great crested newt presence has been predicted or are within a 250m of a Core Area. Higher scores are associated with darker colouration and represent a greater presence of suitable habitat features: pH 6.75-7.5 Density of grassland 10-66% Distance from woodland <100m Shannon-Weaver diversity -1.5 to -0.6 Where drainage is classed as Impeded, Naturally Wet or Water These suitable habitat features have been given a score of ‘1’. Density of arable 50-100% Has been given a score of ‘-1’. Land classification is Acid Grassland or Bog Has been given a score of ‘-2’. Urban areas > 2ha (+400m buffer), roads (7.5m) and rivers (7.5m) have been excluded.
