dc.description.abstractThe aim of this study is to understand how the daily grazing paths of sheep and goats in the silvopastoral systems of the North of Portugal are connected with the rural landscape. For this purpose, A herd of sheep and a herd of goats were monitored with GPS every month during one year in order to record their geographical position. The total data includes 3210 GPS positions, 1948 for the goat's ock and 1262 for the sheep ock. A GIS was used to identify the land cover class of each GPS position on the thematic map COS 2007 published by Portuguese Geographic Institute (http://www.igeo.pt). The land cover selection/rejection was estimated by the Krueger’s preference index (Krueger 1972). The discriminant analysis was used to determine which land cover classes discriminate between sheep and goats herds. Discriminant functions analysis was used to classify the sheep and goats positions and paths in order to distinguish the grazing landscapes of sheep and goats. it was assessed and compared the land cover types used by sheep and goats herds.pt_PT
