Jervis Bay Booderee National Park Plot Network: Bird Count Survey Data, Booderee National Park, Jervis Bay Territory, 2014

This bird count data package comprises repeated time-controlled point interval counts conducted annually along a permanent 100 metre-long transect. The abundance of species observed or heard is recorded, and counts are not undertaken in poor weather (rain, fog or high wind). Two five-minute counts are conducted at each site, one at the 20 m mark and the other at 80 m mark of the transect. All birds seen or heard are recorded and assigned to different distance classes. Each site is surveyed on a different day by a different observer to reduce day effects on detection and reduce problems with observer differences. Surveys are completed in late September each year. Bird count surveys commenced in 2002 and have been conducted since on an annual basis. The Jervis Bay Plot Network was established in 2002 in Booderee National Park in the Jervis Bay Territory, South-eastern Australia. The study location is a floristically diverse area in which fire history has been well-documented over several decades. The plot network’s objectives involve quantifying the inter-relationships between natural disturbance and/or management intervention (including weed and feral animal control and prescribed burning) and the reciprocal changes in vegetation condition and biodiversity response. The Jervis Bay Plot Network study forms part of the collection of data packages by this plot network. A synopsis of related data packages which have been collected as part of the Jervis Bay Plot Network’s full program is provided at http://www.ltern.org.au/index.php/ltern-plot-networks/jervis-bay-booderee-national-park.本鸟类计数数据集套件包含沿固定100米样带（transect）开展的年度重复时间控制式样点间隔计数调查。调查将记录观测及听闻所得的鸟类物种多度，且遇降雨、大雾或大风等恶劣天气时，将暂停计数工作。每个样点需开展两次为期5分钟的计数：一次设于样带20米标记处，另一次设于80米标记处。所有可见或可闻的鸟类均会被记录，并按不同距离区间进行分类。每个样点由不同调查员于不同日期开展调查，以降低日期效应对检测结果的影响，同时规避调查员差异带来的系统误差。调查于每年9月下旬完成。鸟类计数调查始于2002年，此后每年按期持续开展。 杰维斯湾样地网络（Jervis Bay Plot Network）于2002年在澳大利亚东南部杰维斯湾领地的布德里国家公园（Booderee National Park）正式设立。该研究区域植物区系多样，数十年来的火灾历史均有完整归档记录。该样地网络的研究目标为量化自然干扰及/或管理干预措施（涵盖杂草防控、外来野生动物管控与计划火烧）与植被状况、生物多样性响应的双向变化之间的相互关系。杰维斯湾样地网络的本项研究，属于该样地网络数据集套件合集的组成部分。杰维斯湾样地网络完整项目所收集的相关数据集套件概览，可通过以下链接获取：http://www.ltern.org.au/index.php/ltern-plot-networks/jervis-bay-booderee-national-park
