Aim: North America’s scoter species are poorly monitored relative to other waterfowl. Black (Melanitta americana), surf (M. perspicillata), and white-winged (M. deglandi) scoter abundance and trend estimates are thus uncertain in many parts of these species’ ranges. The most extensive source of waterfowl abundance and distribution data in North America is the Waterfowl Breeding Population and Habitat Survey (WBPHS). Although the WBPHS effectively monitors most species, both its timing and geographic coverage may not allow for accurate scoter monitoring. Therefore, our goal was to better define when and where scoters breed to help interpret survey results and optimize survey methods for scoters.
