Comparison of transect call-point and acoustic sampling of white-headed woodpeckers (Dryobates albolarvatus) within mixed-conifer and ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) forest types

Creator:: Gaylord, Marie A.
Abstract:: We used occupancy modeling to compare the detection probabilities of white-headed woodpeckers using transect call-point versus ARU surveys. We then used the estimated detection probability for each survey method to evaluate the number of surveys needed to infer white-headed woodpeckers absence under different levels of certainty.
