Abstract Point counts and transect surveys are both common methods for estimating bird abundance (by species, genus, or family) in a given environment. Sometimes both methods are used in the same study. Point counts reflect abundance directly, while transect observations of bird feeding instances reflect both the bird abundance and the ...

Incentives Increase Participation in Mass Dog Rabies Vaccination Clinics and Methods of Coverage Estimation Are Assessed to Be Accurate. [PDF]
In this study we show that incentives (dog collars and owner wristbands) are effective at increasing owner participation in mass dog rabies vaccination clinics and we conclude that household questionnaire surveys and the mark-re-sight (transect survey ...
