In this work, we collected eBird and iNaturalist observations in the Upper Bay of Fundy area (around the Minas Basin) from 2016-2021 to explore the utility of citizen science datasets in spatially restricted landscapes like dykelands and tidal wetlands with scarce primary biodiversity data. This was done as a report to the NSERC Strategic Partnership Grants for Networks project called ResNet, as part of Landscape one of its six landscape case studies (https://www.nsercresnet.ca/landscape-1---bay-of-fundy.html). The short report (5 pages) briefly describes the results of the analysis, with relevant references, and the Technical Appendices (37 pages) include the analytical approaches, large versions of each map from the spatial analysis, as well as full species lists for each of the three two-year time slices taken.
