Survey designs and statistical methods for the estimation of avian population trends
@inproceedings{Sauer1990SurveyDA, title={Survey designs and statistical methods for the estimation of avian population trends}, author={J. Sauer and S. Droege}, year={1990} }
-The route-regression method has been used in recent years to analyze data from roadside surveys. With this method, a population tr~nd is estimated for each route in a region, then regional trends are estimated as a weighted mean of the individual route trends. This method can accurately incorporate data that is unbalanced by changes in years surveyed and observer differences. We suggest that route-regression methodology is most efficient in the estimation oflong-term (>5 year) trends, and… CONTINUE READING
