Opis

The National Park Service (NPS) created the Inventory and Monitoring (I&M) Program following the National Park Omnibus Management Act of 1998 to acquire data needed to support effective management and protection of native habitats located on park lands. The role of the I&M Program is to collect, organize, and make available natural resource data and contribute to the National Park Service's institutional knowledge by facilitating the transformation of data into information through analysis, synthesis and modeling. In concordance with the stated role of the I&M Program, the objectives of this survey were to provide information for monitoring long-term trends in forest bird distribution and abundance in NPSA. Ultimately, this information will help to inform and implement management actions for bird conservation. The National Park of American Samoa (NPSA) was surveyed for landbirds and habitat characteristics from June through August, 2011. This information provides the first data in the time-series of landbird monitoring for long-term trends in forest bird distribution, density, and abundance within the NPSA.
