Standard Operating Procedures (5.1): Bird Abundance and Activity
The primary purpose of these observational sampling methods is to develop maps of species presence and distributions including information on rare species, to quantify a snapshot of the avian community, and/or to supplement historical or volunteer data. Additionally, recording activity of each species will allow for an assessment of higher ecological function of the survey… Continue reading Standard Operating Procedures (5.1): Bird Abundance and Activity
Standard Operating Procedures (6.2): Terrestrial Invertebrates
Terrestrial invertebrates are a vital component of wetland food webs and are indicators of the overall health of a system (Zedler 2001). The primary purpose of this sampling method is to document aerial and epigeal (above soil surface) arthropod productivity (as biomass per unit area, or biomass per day) for each habitat or area by… Continue reading Standard Operating Procedures (6.2): Terrestrial Invertebrates
Standard Operating Procedures (7.2): Photo Point
The primary purpose of this sampling method is to capture broad changes in the landscape and vegetation communities over seasons or years or to visually track restoration trajectories over time. This method collects georeferenced photos for use in site management (e.g., invasive species tracking) and long-term data collection. Each year (or seasonally), photograph(s) taken at… Continue reading Standard Operating Procedures (7.2): Photo Point
