“…The ability to determine where critical favorable feeding resources are, and what their spatial configuration is, may allow retaining them fully under certain retention strategies. High-resolution data from multispectral remote sensing that allows assessing and mapping favorable feeding resources at operational scales may therefore be an important tool in arboreal folivore conservation (Wagner, 2021;Wu, Levin, Seabrook, Moore, & McAlpine, 2019;Youngentob et al, 2012;Youngentob, Yoon, Stein, Lindenmayer, & Held, 2015). Our findings suggest that current (voluntary) prescriptions that retain a minimum of 40% basal area (DELWP and ARI staff, personal communication, April and May 2021; DELWP, 2019) or single-tree retention (Ashton & Kelty, 2018;DEPI, 2014) may not suffice for permanent greater glider persistence at a stand scale, if forage trees are poorly spatially distributed (Figures 6 and 7).…”
