Designing a survey to monitor multi-scale impacts of agri-environment schemes on mobile taxa

J. T. Staley et al.

Summary: This study focused on assessing the effectiveness of agri-environment schemes on butterflies, birds, and pollinating insects. A survey design based on orthogonal gradients of AES management at local and landscape scales was developed to monitor the response of multiple taxa. The results showed a strong correlation between predicted AES gradients for each taxon, supporting the co-location of surveys across different taxa and allowing the effects of AES on species at each scale to be tested.
