Exploring restoration efforts from a social lens: statistical models reveal relationships between salmon habitat restoration efforts and ecological and social characteristics of th... by Brittany D King, Robert Fonner

“…We specified statistical models to explain the variation in the number of restoration worksites undertaken in subwatersheds as a function of environmental and social variables. Using a common set of explanatory variables, we fit four models to examine the distribution of worksites associated with particular types of restoration actions (instream, riparian, land acquisition, and fish passage) and a fifth model to examine the distribution of all aquatic-based restoration worksites across action types. …”
