The Granular Size Concept in Avian Ecology: A Critical Analysis of eBird Data Bias Using the Bird Rank Abundance Distribution

Birds, 2023
In previous studies using eBird citizen data, bird abundance rankings followed a power law distribution. Our research delves into the “granular size” concept within these power laws, likening birds to firms.
