Dados Sobre o Projeto
This study was part of a 3-year project being funded by the JRS Biodiversity Foundation through Kabale University that aimed at generating data for evidence-based biodiversity conservation planning, monitoring, and policy advocacy within the papyrus swamps in the Albertine rift region. Data on the abundance and distribution of endemic bird species were collected through point-count surveys between 7am and 11:30am.

Métodos de Amostragem
Surveys were conducted from the swamp edge often by boat or from elevated areas to offer the best detection probability. The number of species were identified aurally or visually within 15 minutes with distance from the observers to the individual bird in distance bands90-10m, 10-0m, 20-40m, 40-70m, 70-100m, 100-150m, 150-200m).
| Área de Estudo | Point count surveys were conducted around papyrus wetlands in Kabale, Kisoro, Rubanda district. |
|---|---|
| Controle de Qualidade | Quality control measures included observer training on species identification and distance estimation before fieldwork. Daily reviews of field data ensured accuracy and completeness, and field guides and recorded calls were used to verify species identification. |
Descrição dos passos do método:
- • Conducted preliminary training on distance estimation and species identification. • Established survey points at 150-meter intervals around the wetland. • Allow a settling period before of 2-3 minutes starting each point count. • Conducted 10-minute counts, recording all papyrus-endemic bird species and estimating their distance from the observer. • Used call playback when necessary to confirm the presence of target species. • Documented coordinates using GPS and recorded data on field sheets.
