"Teaching (and learning) how to best monitor tropical bird populations: lessons from Costa Rica, Mexico, Cuba and Malaysia" Viviana Ruiz-Gutierrez, Ph.D. Postdoctoral Fellow, Dept. of Fish, Wildlife, and Conservation Biology, Colorado State University and Visiting Fellow, Neotropical Conservation Initiative, Cornell Lab of Ornithology I will be informally talking about some of most recent work on the effects of forest fragmentation on tropical birds in Costa Rica, as well as the replication of this work in an experimental setting in Borneo, Malaysia. The bulk of my talk will be on capacity building efforts and data analysis support I have been doing with Eduardo IƱigo-Elias in Latin America, which includes estimating survival rates of resident birds from 20-yrs of banding efforts in Mexico, and estimating nest survival rates for 5 bird species in Siboney, Cuba. ****************************************** Charles Eldermire Public Education Outreach Associate Manager, Sapsucker Woods & Johnson Visitors' Center Cornell Lab of Ornithology 159 Sapsucker Woods Rd.
