Breeding shorebird surveys on the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska (2019-2022)
This dataset contains results from long-term monitoring of breeding shorebirds on the Coastal Plain (1002 Area) of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska. Surveys were conducted during 2019–2022 using the Arctic PRISM (Program for Regional and International Shorebird Monitoring) protocol. The sampling design employed stratified random selection of 16-ha plots across four habitat strata (wetland, moist, riparian, upland), and field methods included rapid area searches by trained observers. The datasets includes plot-level detections, behavioral indicators of breeding status, and habitat classifications to support the estimation of contemporary population sizes for 16 species and assessment of long-term population trends for 13 species present in Brown et al. (2007, The Condor, 109:1–14).
Potential users of these data are encouraged to first contact the data authors to discuss intended use and how these data may or may not be applicable.
