Local Knowledge Graph (15 entities)

Knowledge graph centered on Daily roadkill monitoring of small mammals (Sciuridae) with 15 nodes and 30 connections. Top connected: mark-recapture (Sciuridae), population dynamics, vehicular collision mortality, detection probability, Tourist traffic volume indexing (Sciuridae).

Description

Daily walking surveys along a road transect to detect, identify, tag and remove small mammal roadkill carcasses within hours of detection. Compared detection efficiency against simulated weekly surveys.

Typical Equipment

• County Road 317
• ear tags
• identification tags for carcasses

Output Measurements

• daily roadkill counts
• carcass detection rates
• sex-specific mortality rates
