Bird surveys were conducted in 1981, 1989, 1994, 2000, 2005, 2007, 2008, and 2012. From these data we calculated species-specific density and abundance estimates. We conducted separate trends assessments for the Interior (long [1981-2012] and short [2000-2012]) and the Exterior (surveyed 2000-2012) portions of the Alakai Plateau, and using abundance estimates for native species from 2000-2012, we fit a linear and exponential growth model to the population numbers of each species to evaluate time to extinction.

Forest bird surveys were conducted in Kalaupapa National Historical Park using the variable circular plot method. Between six and twelve survey stations were set 140 m apart along six transects. Stations were surveyed for birds from March - May 2005. Results showed the presence of three native forest bird species, the apapane, the iiwi, and Hawaii amakihi, and 12 aliend forest bird species, the barn owl, black francolin, common myna, house finch, Japanese bush-warbler, Japanese white-eye, northern cardinal, nutmeg mannikin, red-billed leiothrix, skylark, spotted dove, and white-rumped shama.

This data release contains the point-transect distance sampling records of forest bird survey collected in the Kohala Mountain complex in 2017, including survey point IDs, distance to detected birds, sampling conditions, ohia phenology, habitat classifications and background noise levels. This data release consists of one tabular dataset.

We used an automated radio telemetry network to document the activity of radio telemetered Hawaiian forest birds in two study sites, one a continuous forest and the other a fragmented forest. Four bird species were studied: the nectarivorous ʻiʻiwi (Drepanis coccinea) and ʻapapane (Himatione sanguinea), the frugivorous ʻōmaʻo (Myadestes obscurus), and the generalist Hawaiʻi ʻamakihi (Chlorodrepani virens; hereafter ʻamakihi). In the continuous forest we also tracked two non-native species: the frugivorous red-billed leiothrix (Leiothrix lutea), and the generalist warbling white-eye (Zosterops japonicus). Using sequential changes in radio signal strength we were able to estimate when birds were moving or resting. This data release consists of one tabular dataset with 2,026,289 records that contains the bird information, designated activity characterization, telemetry network information, and signal strength.

Eight-minute point-transect distance bird surveys were collected in and around Haleakala National Park from 1993-2008. This dataset contains the location, species, and distance to detected birds, as well as identifying initials to distinguish among observers.

Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park (HAVO) was surveyed for landbirds and landbird habitat from February through April 2015 and February through April 2016. This information provides the second datum in the time-series of Pacific Island Network (PACN) monitoring for long-term trends in landbird distribution, density, and abundance. Initial PACN surveys were conducted in 2010 and are repeated every five years. The entire survey area was comprised of eight tracts in forest, woodland, and shrub habitat, totaling 26,364 ha. Each tract was surveyed using point-transect distance sampling to calculate estimates of bird abundance and density. . In addition to the permanent PACN survey transects, randomly generated point-transects were also surveyed, allowing for a split panel sampling design.
