Abstract |
Birds potentially detect aspects of wetland landscape condition that are not detected by the other groups commonly used as indicators. Moreover, birds are of high interest to a broad sector of the public. When using birds as indicators, one must pay particular attention to issues of spatial scale. This requires an understanding of home range sizes of the bird species being surveyed. The development of wetland and riparian bird indices of biological integrity is still in its infancy, but holds considerable promise. This module is intended to suggest study designs and data collection procedures that might be used when constructing and testing a regional index of biological integrity, using birds as indicators. |
