Wildfire smoke reduces Little Eagle (Hieraaetus morphnoides) flight activity

Figures & data

Figure 1. The variation in recorded levels of smoke particle density values PM_2.5 as a measure of air quality recorded at Canberra City during the two study periods, 2018–2019 and 2019–2020. The data points represent the hourly PM_2.5 values recorded at the time of each GPS fix.

Figure 2. The relationship between density of particulate matter (PM_2.5) and model-fitted odds of a Little Eagle flying. The box-plots were generated for illustration only with the PM_2.5 points grouped into discrete bins at increments of 200 centred on each scaled value. Analysis was done with the value for PM_2.5 as a continuous variable.
