Surveys were conducted during the 3-week period of mid-May to early June and again during mid-June-early July in three years (2007\u20132009). Three datasets are included here 1) data of presence/absence of breeding bird species detected in each 100-m segment of belt transects, 2) four-letter codes for bird species, and 3) environmental and land-cover attributes summarized for 200-m buffers around the bird-survey segments (100m x 100m), and number of years since each segment was burned, based on refuge fire records.These data support the a publication examining factors influencing the bird community in peatlands.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P9XGJC0W", "description": "Landing page for access to the data", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "application/http", "title": "Digital Data"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "The metadata original format", "downloadURL": "https://data.usgs.gov/datacatalog/metadata/USGS.5c6589f3e4b0fe48cb38fcf8.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_5c6589f3e4b0fe48cb38fcf8", "keyword": ["Michigan", "Schoolcraft County", "Seney National Wildlife Refuge", "USGS:5c6589f3e4b0fe48cb38fcf8", "aquatic birds", "biota", "birds", "breeding", "fire ecology", "fire effects", "freshwater ecosystems", "inland waters", "land use and land cover", "landscape", "landscape factors", "local factors", "transect sampling", "wetland birds", "wetlands"], "modified": "2020-08-25T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-86.15, 46.16, -85.92, 46.32", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Breeding bird species in peatland habitats, Seney NWR, 2007-2009"}
