Data and analytical code assessing eleven songbird species' responses to environmental change during summertime (2008 - 2020) in the InterMountain West, USA
This data release provides avian data for 11 songbird species (Bewick’s wren [Thryomanes bewickii], black-throated gray warbler [Setophaga nigrescens], Brewer’s sparrow [Spizella breweri], gray flycatcher [Empidonax wrightii], gray vireo [Vireo vicinior], green-tailed towhee [Pipilo chlorurus], juniper titmouse [Baeolophus ridgwayi], loggerhead shrike [Lanius ludovicianus], sagebrush sparrow [Artemisiospiza nevadensis], sage thrasher [Oreoscoptes montanus], and Townsend’s solitaire [Myadestes townsendi]) associated with summertime point count surveys conducted throughout the InterMountain West under the Integrated Monitoring in Bird Conservation Regions (IMBCR) program, 2008 - 2020. Additionally, remotely sensed environmental data used in analyses, summarized at various spatial extents, is included in this data release. Finally, we provide code written in the R programming language to model avian abundance as a function of environmental covariates, evaluate model output for fit and chain convergence, and summarize model results in both table and figure formats.
