Dataset Description
This dataset contains monitoring data for land bird monitoring at park units within the Klamath Inventory and Monitoring Network (KLMN). Landbirds are an effective tool for monitoring because: (1) many species are easily and inexpensively detected, (2) standardized sampling protocols had already been developed, (3) landbird species respond to a wide variety of habitat conditions, and (4) measuring status and trends for many species with different ecological requirements can inform landscape scale conservation strategies.
The KLMN landbird protocol contributes to regional and continental bird monitoring and is integrated with an extensive regional bird monitoring network. This effort has yielded a substantial regional dataset with information about landbird distribution, population trends, and population demographics.
Data are collected on species, time, distance, detection method, and breeding status in variable circular plots as well as vegetation surveys including cover and height for trees and shrubs, snag counts, and tree size.
