Using Mark-recapture Distance Sampling to Estimate Sitka Black-tailed Deer Densities in Non-forested Habitats of Kodiak Island, Alaska

Summary
Description
Management goals for Sitka blacktailed deer Odocoileus hemionus sitkensis at Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge are to minimize deer impacts to native flora and fauna while maintaining subsistence harvest opportunities. Accomplishment of these goals requires statisticallyrobust estimates of deer abundance. We estimated deer abundances in nonforested, nonmountainous habitats of southern Kodiak Island using double observer markrecapture distance sampling applied to traditional linetransect aerial counts. We conducted two replicate surveys in nonforested grassland, tundra, and shrub habitats at the Aliulik Peninsula, Olga Flats, and the Ayukulik River valley of Kodiak Island, between 16 May and 21 May 2014. We observed an average of 92 deersurvey replicate, with an average deer group size of 1.73 deergroup. After correcting for estimated deer detection, which accounted for imperfect detection on the transect line, distance to the observer, habitat types, and deer group size effects, we estimated 432 deer SE65.70 occupied the survey area at a density of 0.74 deerkm2 SE0.12. Observer detection on the transect line was 0.93 SE0.02. Deer densities at the Aliulik Peninsula 0.86, SE0.16 were 62 higher than during a 2012 survey 0.53 deerkm2, SE0.07. We opportunistically counted deer carcasses and other wildlife bears, swans, and whale carcasses, which could be used as an index of annual changes in their abundances. This survey provides the first statisticallyrobust means of indexing annual trends in deer densities and abundances on Kodiak Island.

Summary
Description
This research was designed to collect data on the understory plant composition of remnant bottomland hardwood forest tracts on accessible public lands in the LMAV region of Mississippi. The MS surveys of understory vegetation yielded a total of 107 plant species, consisting of 60 herbaceous species and 47 woody species. This probably underestimated understory diversity in these forests, since the latesummer survey likely missed some earlyspring herbaceous flora. Of the total species, there were 42 forbs, 18 graminoids grasses and sedges, 18 woody vines, and 27 tree and shrub species. In AR and LA, an average of 72 understory species per state had been recorded from 8 sites per state, with a similar compositional profile of 31 forbs, 14 graminoids, 19 vines, 35 tree and shrub species, plus 1 aquatic species. The MS surveys detected a total of 30 tree species in the overstory and midstory; 90 of these also occurred in the previously sampled ARLA forest sites Table 2. On average, the tree species similarity based on Coefficient of Community between MS vs. ARLA samples was 72. This verifies that the surveyed MS bottomland forest tracts are generally comparable to the ARLA sites sampled previously. Data from this survey will be analyzed with other existing data to achieve a regional comparison of understory vegetation in restored WRP sites and remnant bottomland forests of the LMAV. Species occurences along nested plots of a transect are presented including understory, midstory, and overstory.
