Habitat Features and Waterbird Abundance and Diversity on Managed Wetlands Enrolled in the California Waterfowl Habitat Program
July 11, 2025
This dataset includes wetland habitat measurements, surrounding land cover metrics, and waterbird abundance and diversity during 240 surveys of 117 individual wetland units enrolled in the California Waterfowl Habitat Program. This dataset was generated from wetland surveys conducted in the Sacramento Valley, San Joaquin Valley, and Suisun Marsh in 2022 and 2023.

Draining, water diversion, and development have greatly reduced the availability of freshwater wetland habitat around the world, and many remaining wetlands are on private lands. Public–private partnership programs can be an important means for promoting habitat conservation and management on private lands. We investigated bird use of 117 wetlands enrolled in the California Waterfowl...
