Birdwatching Deep Dive Dataset Observing Species Interaction and Behaviour
收藏资源简介:
The data collected from the birdwatching pilot examines additional behaviour of how species interact with each other in regards to aggression and territoriality. The dataset is presented in a table which contains 6 columns containing information on how data was compiled. The first column contains the repetitions which are the dates the experiment, birdwatching, took place. The second column kept track of the researcher who was conducting observation. Column three was the area in which data was being collected which was at a local creek by Elmcreek park in the city of Mississauga Ontario over the span of two days for a total of two and a half hours divided across both days. Column four was the common-name species observed and column five compiled the frequency in which that species participated in a particular behaviour not as an individual but as separate individuals. Column six was the behaviour the birds were observed doing from foraging to species interactions. Data was collected in the early morning between 10 am-12 pm on September 12th and 2 pm-3pm on September 13th. The initial day of sampling the temperature was sunny with slight clouding whereas it was cloudier on the second day with a little more wind. Data was collected again over a period of two days two weeks later where the majority of species observed remained the same from the initial pilot, the data collected on September 26th was between the hours of 11 am-12pm whereas the data collected on September 27th was collected between the hours of 8:45am-11am.
本数据集源自观鸟试点研究,旨在探究鸟类物种在攻击性与领地性层面的种间互动行为。该数据集以表格形式呈现,共包含6列,用于说明数据的采集细节:第一列为观测重复次数,即本次观鸟实验的各次开展日期;第二列记录负责开展观测的研究人员信息;第三列为数据采集区域,位于加拿大安大略省密西沙加市埃尔姆克里克公园旁的本地溪流,采集工作分两天完成,总时长共计2.5小时;第四列为观测到的鸟类物种的通用俗名;第五列统计该物种的多个独立个体参与某一特定行为的发生频次;第六列为观测到的鸟类行为类型,涵盖觅食至种间互动等多个类别。首次数据采集于9月12日上午10时至12时,以及9月13日下午2时至3时开展,首日采样时天气晴朗偶有多云,次日则多云且风力稍强。两周后再次开展为期两天的数据采集,本次观测到的多数物种与首次试点研究一致;其中9月26日的采集时段为上午11时至12时,9月27日的采集时段为上午8时45分至11时。
