Remarks

Remarks
The AKN is bringing together bird-monitoring (point-count, area search, distance sampling, transect sampling, nest success), bird-banding, and broad-scale citizen-based bird-surveillance data. All these observational data are unified within a distributed information architecture (the AKN nodes) that is constantly expanding.
