Context for databases
In order to proceed with this investigation, we need to continually access updated data from populations surveys, band recoveries, harvest surveys and other survey and monitoring programs on black ducks, mallards, and their habitats. These data were obtained from a number of sources maintained separately in the U.S. and Canada and are available via this website for the convenience of the project cooperators, and to provide a method for others wishing to test our methods or assumptions to do so using appropriate data. To the extent possible we provide users with information about how these data were collected, via brief descriptions of data format, definitions of data fields, and descriptions and/or links for the details of survey methodology. However, we make no representations as to the accuracy of these data, and in all cases refer the user to the original source(s) for the original data, methods, and descriptions.
How to access the database
The database is currently under development and is only available to developers. Please contact me if you need access to the database.
If you would like to query the database from a Windows-based application, you can do so using ODBC. Here is a tutorial to help you set it up on your PC.
