SNAMP Researchers: The Sierra Nevada Adaptive Management Project (SNAMP) Owl Team is studying the effects of forest fuels treatments on Spotted owl site occupancy, survival and reproduction through annual owl surveys and habitat mapping. They are also collecting pre and post treatment data on vegetative structure within owl territories to estimate the effects of SPLATs on owl habitat.
