Seabird Population
Trends and Causes of Change: 2010 Report. Here we present
the latest analysed trends in abundance,
productivity, demographic parameters and diet, from the
Seabird Monitoring Programme, along with interpretive text
on likely causes of change based on latest research. It
replaces and builds upon the now discontinued publication
Seabird numbers and breeding success in Britain and
Ireland (see below).
The leaflet UK Seabirds in
2008 presents results from the Seabird
Monitoring Programme up to 2008 and provides an
assessment of the pressures seabirds face. Note: this edition
covers both 2007 and 2008. The next issue, to feature an updated
pressures assessment, synthesising the latest research, is
scheduled for publication in 2013. Earlier editions are
also available for download.
Seabird numbers and breeding success in
Britain and Ireland, a summary of monitoring results
at major colonies throughout the British Isles, was produced
annually between 1990 and 2006, available for download. The 2006 edition of the report is
the last paper version to be published; latest results from
the SMP sre now avialable as Seabird
Population Trends and Causes of Change (see above).
- Annual reports of the detailed population monitoring at the
'key sites' of Canna,
Isle of May,
Fair
Isle and Skomer are individually
published; recent editions are available for download via the
respective links.
Seabird colony data have also been used in several other
projects - for reports and further information follow the links
