Summary: | Outlines the design of the Agricultural Research Group on Sustainability (ARGOS) farmland bird monitoring scheme initiated in 2004 and the distance-sampling protocols used to assess bird abundance on farms in three sectors (kiwifruit, sheep & beef and dairy) in the field. Details the data analysis methods used to account for variation in detection probabilities (among species, surveys and sectors) and extract density estimates. Explores the pros and cons of varying the spatial and temporal resolution of the data included in these analyses.
