Bird Strike Risk and Diet Analysis for Hangzhou Airport, 2023 Field Survey

Yixuan Ying's dataset from 2023 investigates bird strike mitigation at Hangzhou Xiaoshan Airport. It includes results from line transect surveys for avian and botanical resources and DNA macrobarcoding analysis of bird strike samples. The data identifies three high-risk bird species and their primary prey and plant food sources.

Use Cases

• Identify high-risk bird species for aviation based on field survey data and flight behavior observations.
• Analyze bird diet composition based on DNA macrobarcoding results from strike samples.
• Model local food web interactions based on identified prey organisms and supporting plant orders.
• Evaluate targeted vegetation management strategies, such as selective weed control and mowing frequency, for airport grounds.

Strengths

• Data is derived from year-round ecological monitoring conducted in 2023.
• Includes molecular analysis (DNA barcoding) for species and diet identification.
• Specifically identifies three high-risk bird species and their associated prey and plant orders.

Limitations

• Row count and column-level documentation are absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The dataset's 22.8 KB size suggests a limited scope, likely containing summary or analysis results rather than raw observation data.
• Geographic coverage is limited to the single study site of Hangzhou Xiaoshan Airport.
