Summary

Description

This protocol framework provides guidance for conducting inventory and monitoring of migrating and wintering shorebirds in all potential habitats at multiple stations within two or more regions. The protocol described in this document is meant to be used to monitor migrating and wintering shorebirds in all potential habitats within a refuge. The design is similar to that laid out by the Program for Regional and International Shorebird Monitoring PRISM. PRISM outlines a systematic approach to sampling while the survey methods are compatible with the traditional ISS. The primary goal is to estimate the number of shorebirds utilizing stopover sites during the spring and fall migration. These sites can then be more effectively managed to conserve focal species on a regional or local level. The sampling frame is defined as all potential shorebird habitats within a refuge. These areas are then divided into plots. The sampling unit is defined as a plot at a particular point in time. Data are recorded at the plot level.
