contents The evolution of non-interacting bosons in the presence of repeated projective measurements is studied. Following the established approach, this monitored evolution is characterized by the first detected return and the first detected transition probabilities. We show that these quantities are directly related to the entanglement entropy and to the entanglement spectrum of a bipartite system. Calculations with specific values for the number of bosons, the number of measurements and the time step between measurements reveal a sensitive and often strongly fluctuating entanglement entropy. In particular, we demonstrate that in the vicinity of special values for the time steps the evolution of the entanglement entropy is either stationary or performs dynamical switching between two or more stationary values. In the entanglement spectrum, on the other hand, this complex behavior can be associated with level crossings, indicating that the dominant quantum states and their entanglement respond strongly to a change of the system parameters. We discuss briefly the role of time averaging to remove the fluctuations of the entanglement entropy.
