Book Description
This manual describes a track count census method for white-tailed deer. This technique is one of several methods that the Corps District or project biologist may employ to estimate white-tailed deer populations on project lands. Aspects of the census discussed include regional application, timing, sampling design, site preparation, counting procedure, and data analysis and interpretation. The track count census has been primarily adapted for use on forested lands with sandy soils and flat-to-rolling terrain. Although this technique has limited geographical application, it has been used successfully in areas of Florida, Texas, and the midwestern states. Regional application and optimum seasonal timing are discussed and transect specifications and site selection are given. The preparation of transect lines is described, and the counting procedure is outlined in detail. The formulas used for determining population density and appropriate sample size are accompanied by numerical examples that illustrate that calculations and statistics. A reproducible form is also provided for recording track count data.

Environmental Impact Research Program. Brush Piles. Section 5.3.1, US Army Corps of Engineers Wildlife Resources Management Manual
Author: Chester O. Martin
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 23
Book Description
A management techniques report on brush piles is provided as Section 5.3.1 of the US Army Corps of Engineers Wildlife Resources Management Manual. The report was prepared as a guide to assist Corps biologists and resource managers in developing habitat management programs for project lands. Topics covered for brush structures include wildlife value, cautions and limitations. The provision of adequate resting and escape cover is critical to proper management of ground-nesting birds, rabbits, and other small game. Although living brush is preferred in most situations, artificial structures can be built to provide immediate shelter where natural cover is limited. Guidelines are presented for the design, construction, maintenance, and proper placement of brush piles for a variety of wildlife species. Management for the northern bobwhite (Colinus virginianus) and cottontail rabbits (Sylvilagus spp.) is emphasized. Brush piles are recommended for use in conjunction with other habitat management practices designed to improve food, cover, and water.

Pages : 10
Book Description
An equipment report on steep-slope seeders is provided as Section 8.4.6 of the US Army Corps of Engineers Wildlife Resources Management Manual. The report is designed to assist the Corps district or project biologist with the selection and use of types of equipment and materials available for habitat development and manipulation. Topics covered include description, operation and maintenance, limitations, and availability. The steep-slope seeder consists of a telescoping boom crane and seeding apparatus developed for establishing vegetation on steep, unstable slopes. Management objectives for using steep-slope seeders are stated, and application to habitat development projects is discussed. The design and assembly of equipment are described and illustrated, and general specifications are provided. Methods of operation are described, and maintenance and safety requirements are given. Appropriate cautions and limitations are discussed. Keywords: Planting methods, and Site reclamation.
