Point transect data collected in central Wyoming on 120 points surveyed for Sage Thrashers by the Wyoming Cooperative Fish & Wildlife Research Unit in 2013.
A rowwise tibble containing 120 rows and 8 columns, one of which (i.e., 'detections') contains nested data frames of detections. Each row represents one transect of one point.
A data.frame containing 120 rows and 6 columns. Each row represents a surveyed site. Each surveyed site is considered one transect of one point. Column descriptions:
siteID
: Factor (120 levels), the site or point surveyed.
detections
: An embedded (nested) data frame containing
detections made at that point. Columns in the embedded data frame contain:
groupsize
: The number of individuals in
the detected group.
dist
: The radial distance (m) from
the transect to the detected group.
observer
: Factor (six levels), identity of the observer who surveyed
the point.
bare
: Number, the mean bare ground cover (%)
within 100 m of each point.
herb
: Number, the mean herbaceous
cover (%) within 100 m of each point.
shrub
: Number, the mean
shrub cover (%) within 100 m of each point.
height
: Number,
the mean shrub height (cm) within 100 m of each point.
npoints
: The number of point counts on the transect.
