Bird Diversity Data

Bird Diversity and abundance data collected from 54 different ranches that were studied to understand the effects of adaptive multi-paddock grazing (AMP, short duration grazing with long periods between grazing) on bird communities. There were a total of 434 point counts (both visual acoustic detection) conducted across the different ranches to determine the composition of bird communities at different sites to compare sites subjected to AMP practice vs sites that did not undergo AMP.

Please view the README.txt file for metadata information on how to interpret the different data files ( Döbert et al. 2023 - Table 1, Table 2, Table 3, Table 4, Table 5).

Supporting Information and data tables are also included.

All data is associated with the Döbert et al. 2023 study - "Diverse grazing systems aid conservation of threatened grassland birds in the Northern Great Plains".
