Analysis of the North American Breeding Bird Survey Using Hierarchical Models (2011, methodology): “Weighting by mean abundance of routes and by a variance weight (Sauer et al. 2003) limits the influence of poorly surveyed or low-abundance routes on the estimates (Geissler and Sauer 1990).”
Recent land use change in the Western Corn Belt threatens grasslands and wetlands (2013, background): “As a consequence, populations of grassland nesting birds are declining faster than any other group of birds in North America (11, 12).”
Novel seasonal land cover associations for eastern North American forest birds identified through dynamic species distribution modelling (2016, background): “…account for regional variation in species’ migration patterns, land cover associations and regional habitat availability, we summarized each species’ distribution across Bird 720 Diversity and Distributions, 22, 717–730, ª 2016 John Wiley & Sons Ltd Conservation Regions (BCRs) (Sauer et al., 2003).”
The North American Breeding Bird Survey 1966–2011: Summary Analysis and Species Accounts (2013, methodology): “Using results from 1966 to 2009, and following the cut points for precision described by Sauer et al. (2003), they found that 68 species (16”
