- The influence of sampling scheme and interpolation method on the power to detect spatial effects of forest birds in Ontario (Canada). Robert S. Rempel; Robert S. Kushneriuk // Landscape Ecology;Nov2003, Vol. 18 Issue 8, p741
Abstract Spatial ecology is becoming an increasingly important component of resource management, and the general monitoring of how human activities affect the distribution and abundance of wildlife. Yet most work on the reliability of sampling strategies is based on a non-spatial analysis of...

- Temporal Variation in Forest Bird Survey Data from Tutuila Island, American Samoa. Freifeld, Holly B.; Solek, Chris; Tualaulelei, Ailao // Pacific Science;Jan2004, Vol. 58 Issue 1, p99
Avian census data from tropical Pacific islands often are limited to brief, one-time surveys. These efforts yield information about species' presence and distribution but reveal little about variation in abundance through time. This variation may be important for refining and optimizing survey...
- Traffic noise affects forest bird species in a protected tropical forest. Ar�valo, J. Edgardo; Newhard, Kimberly // Revista de Biolog�a Tropical;jun2011, Vol. 59 Issue 2, p969
The construction of roads near protected forest areas alters ecosystem function by creating habitat fragmentation and through several direct and indirect negative effects such as increased pollution, animal mortality through collisions, disturbance caused by excessive noise and wind turbulence....

Montague-Drake, Rebecca; Lindenmayer, David; Cunningham, Ross; Stein, John // Landscape Ecology;Dec2011, Vol. 26 Issue 10, p1383
We explored the effects of a purported 'reverse keystone species', the Noisy Miner ( Manorina melanocephala) using a long-term, large-scale dataset. Specifically, we identify whether this aggressive bird affects the landscape distribution patterns of other avifauna, by displacing them into, or...
