This grant from the Environmental Department aims to support research on improving a non-breeding season tidal marsh bird protocol, focusing on sparrows and rails. It includes testing sampling methods to estimate bird abundances, identifying logistical challenges, and estimating sampling costs. The goal is to lay the groundwork for developing a comprehensive sampling protocol for various marsh specialist species. The closing date for applications is September 8, 2015.

| Description: | Funds under this award are to be used to advance the development of a non-breeding season tidal marsh bird protocol with a focus on sparrows and rails, but capacity to collect data on other marsh specialist species. We will build on our prior experiences working in the northeast, the southeast, and along the Gulf Coast during the nonbreeding season and test sampling methods to estimate bird abundances and coefficients of variation, document logistical challenges, and estimate sampling costs to provide the foundation for developing a specific sampling protocol. |
