Avian Community Structure as a Function of Season, Habitat Type, and Disturbance, in Mole National Park, Northern Region (Ghana)

Figure 4

Standardized comparison of species richness for two individual-based rarefaction curves. The data represent summary counts of birds that were recorded from the four habitats in Mole National Park. The green, red turquois and blue lines are the rarefaction curves, calculated from (1) [53], with a 95% confidence interval. The dotted vertical lines illustrate a species richness comparison standardized to 262 (dry season) and 447 (wet season) individuals, which was the observed bird abundance in the smallest (grassland) of the four habitats bird data sets.
