Snowy Plover
Occurred the most disproportionately in hexagons with coastal dunes and ponds. Also occurred in hexagons with no coastal dunes and ponds if more than 12% salt desert scrubland is present. The logistic regression analysis showed positive or negative association with coastal dunes and ponds, freshwater marsh, wetlands and wet shrubland, and-to a lesser degree-salt desert scrubland, number of land cover types, and the extent of public land.
