Coded; = "1" if replicate count (different day) during the same survey, "0" or blank otherwise. If there are replicate counts for a site, all counts for that site are marked "1". Beginning in 2010, there are multiple counts at the same site with the same date. These are the raw counts of more than one counter using aerial photos, and in these cases, the replicate field is marked 0. Note that starting in 2002, individual counters; counts during beach/ground counts are listed in the Comments, and again Replicate is 0.
