2007 journal article

A field evaluation of distance measurement error in auditory avian point count surveys

JOURNAL OF WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT, 71(8), 2759–2766.

By: M. Alldredge n, T. Simons n & K. Pollock n

author keywords: abundance; auditory detections; bird surveys; distance estimation; measurement error; point count surveys
TL;DR: Findings, which are based on realistic field conditions, suggest measures of uncertainty in distance estimates to auditory detections are substantially higher than assumed by most researchers, which means aural point count estimates of avian abundance based on distance methods deserve careful scrutiny because they are likely biased.

ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY AND CHEMISTRY, 26(10), 2086–2093.

By: R. Bringolf n, W. Cope n, C. Eads n, P. Lazaro n, M. Barnhart* & D. Shea n

Contributors: R. Bringolf n, W. Cope n, C. Eads n, P. Lazaro n, M. Barnhart* & D. Shea n

author keywords: herbicides; insecticides; fungicides; early life stage; sodium chloride
