White-nose syndrome and wind turbines have caused major population declines of insectivorous bat species of North America. Conservational efforts are made to preserve the remaining bat populations. NaBat is a national conservational monitoring program that has set up standard protocols to measure U.S. bat population trends. Species diversity (via stationary monitors) and abundance (via driving ... read moresurveys) can be measured through acoustic monitoring of bat’s ultrasonic echolocation calls. The objective of our experiment is to measure abundance and diversity of native Massachusetts bat species using NaBat protocols in the Carlisle and Westford grids.
