Marbled Murrelet Marine Density Surveys in Coastal British Columbia: Digital Dataset
Entry ID:
UAF_marbledmurreletmarinedensity
Summary
Abstract:
This data set contains Marbled Murrelet marine density surveys (number of
birds/km2) at georeferenced locations along the British Columbia coast. The surveys span a period of 14 years but only include those that were conducted within the Marbled Murrelet breeding period defined as April to August. This includes the immediate pre- and post breeding period also. Because ... ![]()

Quality
Various researchers have conducted the at-sea surveys that are presented here,
and while in all instances, the surveys have been standardized to a density unit, there are differences in the methodology depending on the study. In some cases, the average density is reported and does not include the variance around that measure. Where the survey type is not reported, NA will be noted.
