5203 |a"Counts of seabirds at sea are sometimes made without defining an outer transect width or measuring the distance to each sighting. These counts can be converted into indices of abundance by expressing them as birds per unit time or per distance travelled. If the relative motion of flying birds is taken into account, then the comparability of such indices can be improved. In addition, the relative density of birds in flight and on the water can be estimated. We present methods for doing this, based on knowledge of flight speeds and range of detectability"--Abstract.
