Directions: In the box below, estimate your contribution of time to the
project today, separating the time it took you to travel to the site and the
time you spent making observations on plants and animals once you
arrived at the site. If you are observing animals, report the time you
spent searching for animals and circle the appropriate letter for your
observation method (there is no need to report time for incidental
sightings):
i – incidental: chance sighting while not speci cally searching
s – stationary: standing or sitting at a single point
w – walking: a single pass or transect through your site
a – area search: multiple passes through your site
In the four boxes to the right, circle the appropriate letter to describe the
phenophase status:
y – phenophase is occurring
n – phenophase is not occurring
? – not certain if the phenophase is occurring
Do not circle anything if you did not check for the phenophase. In the
adjacent blank, write in the appropriate measure of intensity or
abundance for this phenophase.
