WildCount Species Data |
Abstract |
The aim of the Wildcount program was to monitor fauna in eastern New South Wales within NPWS estate and identify changes in species populations through occupancy modelling. Surveys commenced in 2012 and were conducted annually at standard sites until 2021. Each field program was conducted in Autumn. The average number of sites surveyed each year was 198. Within each site four Reconyx PC800 cameras were deployed and placed at the corners of a 500 x 500 metre grid. Lures consisting of peanut butter and oats were placed infront of each camera. Each site was surveyed for a minimum of 14 consecutive days. Species were recorded as either present or absent and each species identification was assigned a level of confidence (definite, probable, possible). Summarised results are searchable on the NSW BioNet, under the 'WildCount' dataset. Systematic information is captured in the Fauna Survey module of the BioNet system as well. Information regarding species lists, and site locations, are available on an internal PowerBI.

WildCount: Broad-scale, long-term monitoring of fauna in NSW national parks 2012-2016 |
Name: WildCount: Broad-scale, long-term monitoring of fauna in NSW national parks 2012-2016 Protocol: WWW:DOWNLOAD-1.0-http--download Description: This report summarises the first five years of data collection and analysis, from 2012-2016. It addresses a number of key factors arising from the study thus far, (i) patterns of annual variation and change in occupancy (as a surrogate for change in distribution) of 39 of the most commonly encountered species or taxa, (ii) detectability of 157 species/taxa across approximately 200 study sites, and (iii) an assessment of the overall study design in delivering the stated aims of the study.
