Title Comparing the Use of Abundance and Consistent Occupancy Measures to Predict Local Species Persistence

Excerpt I compared the utility of two continuous time-series data measures for applied conservation biology by investigating how well each could predict future local persistence of a diverse set of bird species. I used 37 years of data from the North American Breeding Bird Survey to calculate abundance from yearly point-counts and permanence (i.e., consistent occupancy […]
