Methods

Records of bird species giving perpendicular distance of sighting from transect line for January April June and October censuses on 16 separate transects. In addition to the watershed representing the LTER grassland treatments transects are also run in the gallery forest and an upper watershed forest edge habitat.Transect-based estimates of bird populations in tallgrass prairie gallery forest and riparian edge habitats Unit of abundance = Presence, Unit of biomass = NA
