Using 50 m fixed-radius point counts, we surveyed breeding bird communities for 2 years at 34 study sites, located at the center of 300-m-long greenway segments.
We surveyed breeding birds for an average of 4 years on 23 primarily even-aged successional stands ranging from 2 to 120 years old to observe changes in species richness and density following clearcutting in central New York.
Many people stick to their favourite areas, such as ornithology or botany, and spend their careers carrying out habitat surveys or breeding bird surveys, for example.
We calculated that the average costs would be approximately 50.00 USD/year (2001 dollars) to monitor one wetland using one morning survey for breeding birds.
A similar association was also found in the European Union Baseline survey on breeding pigs for maiden gilts [ 32].
A survey of breeding sites found that most positive water bodies were either fish ponds or small reservoirs for domestic use; 70% of all larvae were An.
Due to the malacological survey, 36 breeding sites were identified, of which 11 were classified as foci of schistosomiasis transmission since they pointed out snails which were infected by Schistosoma mansoni.
However, these indices, based on the survey of breeding sites with mosquito larvae, are poorly correlated with the abundance of the adult mosquito population, which is directly responsible for the disease transmission [ 2].
Following the technical specifications in the course of the EU-wide survey in breeding pig herds as outlined in Commission Decision 2008/55/EC, the sampling plan aimed to collect five dust samples from different positions within the compartments with fattening pigs between 10 and 30 weeks of age of randomly chosen operations housing more than 100 finishers.
Management work (whether experimental or not) was in many cases underpinned by various monitoring and surveillance activities (e.g., transect surveys of vegetation, annual surveys of breeding birds, dip-wells to measure water levels, and sampling to measure water quality).
