The eastern and western lineages have identifying factors and the potential refugia and their migration as the historical factors that promote gene flow. The eastern lineage stayed in the eastern United States. The western lineage stayed in in the western United States. Since the eastern and western lineages seem to overlap the Canadian Prairies seem to offer a bridge of riparian habitat where they can meet the glacier retreat. The gene flow seems to be more important along the North-South axis of migration, suggesting that spring migration play’s a big role in the dispersal of lineage. In North America the yellow warblers population has been slowly declining. The yellow warblers are small, they are uniformally yellow birds, and males are a very bright egg-yolk yellow with some reddish streaks on the underparts. Both sexes flash yellow patches in the tail. Since their faces are unmarked, it accentuates their large black eyes. It is a Management Indicator Species Report. It has to disclose the potential effects it will or will not have on the surrounding wildlife and the ecosystem. This report will focus on the potential effects on the habitat on the thirteen (13) management indicator species. A detailed description of the management alternatives, the monument plan, and the environmental impact statement: how it will affect the habitat, and …show more content…
They are most often found in the willows. The most common trees include willows, alders, and cottonwoods all across North America. In the winter the yellow warbler lives in the mangrove forest, dry scrubs, marshes, and forest, typically in the lowlands. They can also be found in open-canopy riparian woodlands. The yellow warbler is dependent on both meadow and non-meadow riparian habitats in the Sierra Nevada’s. The current conditions are approximately 242 acres, 118 montane riparian and 124 are valley foothill riparian. The indirect effects are: 1. No changes in acres of riparian habitat.
2. Possible reduction of deciduous canopy cover, on a maximum of 54 acres treated for fuel reduction.
3. Possible reduction in total canopy cover on a maximum 54 acres
4. No change in CWHR size classes.
The bioregional-scale: The reduction of canopy cover on less than one percent of existing riparian habitat is not accepted to alter the existing trend in the habitat, or lead to a change in the distribution of yellow warblers across the Sierra Nevada bioregion.
