Overview of the ten model input parameter sets used for estimating habitat availability for wolves in Germany.

Notes: Model input parameter sets AT, BT, CT, ANT, BNT and CNT are combinations of a land cover type data set (LCTS) and a road network data set (RNDS). Model input parameter sets T, NT and HP contain only one data set, either a RNDS or the human population density data set (HPDS). The meta-model input parameter set, COM, is a synthesis of the results of all model input parameter sets. Due to the low spatial resolution, no core area could be determined for model input parameter sets HP and COM. Buffers for roads and settlements were only used in the first six model input parameter sets.
