Child Item 1: Data and Photographs from the Inventory of Montane-nesting Birds in the Aniakchak National Monument and Preserve, Alaska

This is a child item of the USGS Data Release: https://doi.org/10.5066/P9KW50B3 This data package contains six tables: 1) characteristics of bird survey sites, 2) vegetation classification at survey sites, 3) detections of all birds at survey sites, 4) behaviors of all birds at survey sites, 5) bird taxonomy and indication of conservation status, and 6) habitat information pertaining to survey site photographs. The objectives of the survey were to 1) use targeted field investigations to document as many bird species as possible that occur within Aniakchak during the breeding season, and 2) describe the distribution, habitat associations, and relative numbers of bird species occurring within Aniakchak during the...
