The standard operating procedures (SOP) document for the overall WBPHS, including the Alaska strata, was updated by USFWS Division of Migratory Bird Management Branch of Migratory Bird Surveys on 21 April 2022. This SOP applies to all survey crews, including Alaska’s.

This collection comprises the log files that accompany the quality-controlled (QC) WBPHS-AK transcribed bird-observation data files. The log files were produced when the original (“raw”) transcribed data were run through the QC process via the “Greenlight” script within the R package “AKaerial” (available at github.com/USFWS/AKaerial). The log files describe any changes that were made to the raw transcribed data during the QC process. There is one log file for each QC transcribed data file: WBPHS_YYYY_QCLog_OOO.html, where YYYY=Year and OOO=Observer initials.

This dataset, BoatWin.csv, contains the bird and marine mammal data that was collected during boat-based surveys in the winters of 2000-2002 to double-sample portions of the aerial winter Southeast Alaska Nearshore Waterbird Survey.

This dataset contains the swan data recorded during the 1985 Alaska Trumpeter Swan Survey. The 1985 survey was designed to census the entire Alaska trumpeter swan summering range.

This dataset contains the swan data recorded during the 2015 Alaska Trumpeter Swan Survey. The 2015 survey was a stratified random-sample plot design with optimal allocation of sampling effort to minimize cost for a fixed variance.

This dataset contains the swan data recorded during the 1980 Alaska Trumpeter Swan Survey. The 1980 survey was designed to census the entire Alaska trumpeter swan summering range.

Originally created by Brad Shults, the GitHub repository was created for markdown code used to quality control survey data and create annual survey reports beginning in 2016. The repository can be found on GitHub (‘https://github.com/bsshults/Teshekpuk-Lake-Molt’). A copy of the master branch that was last committed by user “bsshults” (Brad Shults) on 2/24/20 was downloaded by Maggie Harings on 6/29/21 and stored on the Alaska Regional Data Repository (‘GitHub_Annual_Report_Code’). General file naming structure for repository files is: ‘TMGSurvey_Master_[surveyYear]’ Files ending in the file extension ‘.Rmd’ are used to conduct some quality control and data tidying for original survey data. These files contain comments...

This data set provides the coordinates of plot centers, the area of each plot, plot type, and search history of the plot. Plots in this data set are linked through the combination of plot number and year provided in this file. Plot search history indicates if a plot was searched for nests. Plot shape and area has varied through time. After 1985, plot were selected by stratified random sampling, and after 1998 by simple random sampling from the area defined in ‘YKD Nest Plot Study Area Boundary.’ Plot shape has also varied but after 1998 was generally 1/4 by 1/2 mile.

This multi-layer GeoPackage contains the YKD Coastal Zone Survey design transects from 1985 to present. The original transects were imported to this SQLite database structure and saved as individual polylines named according to the year they were created (e.g., “main.YK_1985_Trans,” “main.YK_1986_Trans,” “main.YK_1987_Trans,” etc.). The aerial transects were developed systematically from randomly-selected start points and created along constant lines of latitude. The inter-transect spacing in the low, medium, high, and very-high density strata varies so that areas with higher waterfowl density are surveyed more intensively. Though the overall study area never changed, the YKD Survey design was modified several times,...

This R code (eggs.R) inputs the quality controlled nest card data and (1) performs additional quality control on the egg code data, (2) reformat the eggs data into a tidy file of egg observations, (3) summarizes egg data into yearly means of initiation and hatch date based on incubation model, and (4) writes csv files for tidy egg data (eggs.csv) and yearly nest stats (yearstats.csv).

In 2019 a pilot study was conducted to determine the feasibility of using distance sampling to estimate density and population size of goose and eider nests on the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta (YKD). Distance sampling (Buckland et al. 2001) is a common and well-understood method to estimate wildlife population size or density, especially for sparse and hard-to-detect populations. A main advantage of distance sampling is that it accounts for imperfect detection and gives precise estimates for a given level of effort relative to other methods. The objectives for the pilot project in 2019 was to (1) determine if distance sampling is feasible on the YKD, (2) determine what aspects of the field protocol need to be changed or...

This dataset, AirWin.csv, contains the raw transcribed bird and marine mammal data collected during the 1997-2002 aerial winter Southeast Alaska Nearshore Waterbird Survey. Note that this dataset contains records of species that were omitted in the final, quality-controlled data (WinterSimplified.csv), due to detection issues or inappropriateness of the survey design for those species.

We have used the software program ‘ImageJ’ to count birds in the overhead photographs taken for the STEI_Overhead survey. Following is a description of this software. Links to the ImageJ guide and specific detailed instructions for counting these photographs are linked to and include:Counting sea ducks with ImageJ.docxImageJ_user-guide_2020.pdfAs well as another quick guideSoftware description ImageJ is a Java-based image processing program developed at the NIH and LOCI. ImageJ was designed with an open architecture that provides extensibility via Java plugins and recordable macros. ImageJ can be run as an online applet, a downloadable application, or on any computer with a Java 5 or later virtual machine. The source...

This is a table that contains all eight Aviatrix, GPS & camera data fields, including camera angle, transect number, sequence, computer time, camera time, latitude, longitude, and altitude. This table will be joined with the table that contains survey and file data and observer results to comprise the final data table that will be run through the bird analyses.

This collection of 10 separate geopackages contains the survey areas of the 1968-2015 Alaska Trumpeter Swan Surveys. The geopackages are named YYYY_AK_TRUS_Survey_Area.gpkg, where YYYY = survey year. Each year’s survey area consisted of a set of U.S. Geological Survey 1:63,360 scale quadrangle maps, where each map represented a potential sampling unit. The 1968-2005 surveys were designed to census the entire survey area, and thus all of the maps were surveyed in these years. The 2010 and 2015 surveys were stratified random samples (optimally allocated to minimize cost for a fixed variance); therefore, only a selected set of 100 maps were surveyed in these years. (Additional geopackages are available in the survey’s...
