WBPHSHistoricR Documentation

Current table of historic estimates for the WBPHS survey

Description

Population indices for the USFWS Alaska Region Migratory Bird Management component of the WBPHS. The survey consists of low-level aerial observations of waterfowl on a stratified strip transect design. For more information on how the estimates are generated, see ReadWBPHS or WBPHStidy. For definitions of the indices, see AdjustCounts. For a complete list of input files, see MasterFileList_WBPHS.

Usage

Format

A data frame of 44 columns covering years 1957-2021:

Species

Year

The 4-digit integer year of the survey, range from 1957 to 2021 (no survey in 2020).

Stratum
