Habitat: temperate broadleaf/mixed forest

Altered habitat: secondary forest

Substrate: ground surface

Disturbance: selective logging

MAT: 13.3

MAP: 1120.0

Habitat comments: "The nine study sites are large and average 400 ha in size... Oaks... occupy the canopy... At the start of the MOFEP project in 1990, most of the overstory trees were 50–70 years old" and sites "were largely free from timber harvest or habitat manipulation for at least 40 years prior to the beginning of the study" but three sites were periodically clearcut and three were selectively logged
climate data are based on Li et al. (2009, Forest Ecology and Management)

Life forms: birds

Sampling methods: line transect,mist nets

Sample size: 306 individuals

Days: 2

Nets or traps: 1404

Net or trap nights: 2808

Sampling comments: there were "13 netlines per site (117 total netlines). A netline consisted of 12 nets (12 m long with 30 mm mesh) placed at 50 m intervals along grid lines spaced 300 m apart. Netlines were operated for two consecutive days from dawn to noon for a total of about 120 net hrs per line. Netting occurred during the first 3 weeks of July"
