NCPN monitoring, landbirds
2011. NCPN monitoring, landbirds. Northern Colorado Plateau Network, Inventory and Monitoring Program
The Northern Colorado Plateau Network (NCPN) is partnering with the Rocky Mountain Bird Observatory (RMBO) to assess breeding-bird species trends in three different habitats: low-elevation riparian, pinyon-juniper, and sagebrush-shrubland. NCPN survey plots will contribute to the RMBO’s broader, landscape-scale breeding-bird monitoring program, which includes more than 1,000 plots in 11 states in the Rocky Mountains and Colorado Plateau. Twice during each breeding season, RMBO surveys 15 transects in each of the three habitats of interest across 11 NCPN parks. Point counts are also conducted as part of a modified monitoring design at Pipe Spring National Monument. This dataset contains the data collected between 2005 and 2010. In 2010, all of the assigned transects were surveyed. Additional details are available in the 2010 field season report (refer to the cross reference citations).
