Avian species list and eBird checklists for 10 long-term ecological research study sites in Central California Drylands

Citizen science data, such as eBird, is broadly accessible and has been underutilized in the study of fine-scale avian populations and distributions. eBird data offers opportunities for examining avian diversity and abundance across ecological gradients. Using these data, we compiled the abundance and diversity of bird communities throughout Central California drylands at 10 established long-term research sites. years 2018-2021 sites 10 unique instances Species list and checklist from these primary data.
