Description
A dataset containing Breeding Bird Survey (BBS) data collected by
the USGS since 1967. Some columns have been removed to simplify the data.
See ftp://ftpext.usgs.gov/pub/er/md/laurel/BBS/DataFiles/Summary.txt for the
original metadata file.
Usage
1
Format
A data frame with 53940 rows and 10 variables:
- countrynum
Numeric code indicating country. USA = 840.
- statenum
Numeric code indicating state. PA = 72.
- Route
numeric code indicating router number
- RPID
Run Protocol Identification Number. See RunProtocolID.txt file in USGS documentation
- Year
Yeardata collected.
- Aou
numeric species code from American Ornithological Union
- StopTotal
Total number of stops out of 50 on which the species was recorded. This is not a count of birds, but the number of stops that had a particular bird! The min value is 1, and the max value is 50
- SpeciesTotal
Total number of stops out of 50 on which the species was recorded. This is what is usually used for modeling. The min value is 1 because a given species in a given year only occurs in the data if it was observed; there are therefore no zeros. These can be added using the expandBBS_routes() function.
