Are You Using AKN Data? Tell Us How!

At the AKN we provide raw avian data resources for scientific research and analysis. In an effort to better understand our audience and our user-base, we'd like to compile an 'AKN Data Use' page that lists all the research projects, conservation efforts, and general data use currently underway at the AKN. Because some datasets are freely available to the public, we don't have a complete list of projects that are using those data. If you are using the AKN dataset for your research project, please tell us more about it! Read on »
