BBS Methodology - Point Counts [page 22/34] |
Vehicles
and Excessive Noise In
order to get a gross measure of traffic noise and related disturbance
along each route, we ask that you count the number of vehicles that
pass by while conducting each 3-min count. If you find counting vehicles
too distracting from the bird survey then skip it. But remember, it
is acceptable for your assistant to count vehicles for you. This information
allows us to determine when a route may need to be modified, and also
may be used as an explanatory variable in future analyses. |
