TL;DR:
It is shown how adaptive optimization can be used to account for uncertainties about how raccoon control may affect Oystercatcher productivity and found that the optimal control of raccoons would result in higher Oystercats productivity than the minimum levels recommended for this species.

TL;DR:
The population of eastern American oystercatchers is estimated to be 10,971 +/− 298 using a combination of ground and aerial counts, and aerial surveys can serve an important management function for shorebirds and possibly other coastal waterbirds by providing population status and trend information across a wide geographic scale.
