Using sightability‐adjusted brood‐pair ratios to estimate waterfowl productivity

ABSTRACT Historically, biologists used brood‐pair ratios (BPRs) as an index to waterfowl productivity to help guide management decisions and evaluate conservation practices. However, BPRs are biased by imperfect detection probabilities, especially for broods. We conducted roadside surveys for breedi...
