Insular mole skinks: Area of habitat still above water given projected sea level rise and proportion of habitat at risk of storm surge in the Florida Keys, Cedar Keys region, and Egmont Key, Florida
The primary habitats for insular mole skinks in Florida are sand beaches, beach berms, and dunes, making them particularly vulnerable to sea level rise (SLR) and storm surge. We used the most recent SLR projections, high resolution lidar-based digital elevation models, a combination of a comprehensive land cover and …
