This grant is for conducting crucial monitoring and analysis of the federally endangered Cape Sable Seaside Sparrow, specifically focusing on its density and breeding status within Everglades National Park. The primary purpose is to equip Park managers with essential data regarding the sparrow population’s response to ongoing hydrologic restoration efforts. Activities include continuing a long-term mark-recapture study of subpopulation A, involving the banding and re-sighting of both adult and juvenile sparrows. Furthermore, current geo-referenced information will be integrated into an existing relational database, which is vital for comprehensively assessing the impacts of restoration activities on these delicate sparrow populations. This project represents a collaborative effort between a university cooperator and the National Park Service.

| Description: | The purpose of the Task Agreement is to conduct monitoring and analysis on the density and breeding status of the federal-listed endangered Cape Sable Seaside Sparrow, providing Everglades National Park managers with an understanding of how this population is responding to hydrologic restoration actions. Further, the project continue the long-term mark-recapture study of sparrows in subpopulation A, including banding and re-sighting of both adult and juvenile sparrows, and will incorporate current geo-referenced information into the existing sparrow relational database designed for use in assessing the impacts of restoration activities on sparrow populations. The university cooperator and the National Park Service will work collaboratively on this project. |
