Overview
Working in partnership with leading seabird research institutes, we have instigated the largest programme of seabird tracking in Europe, which is revolutionising our understanding of seabird movements and distribution, and providing insights into the likely impacts of climate change. For species undergoing severe declines, we are carrying out detailed studies of the causes.
Further afield, we are working with our BirdLife partners and other key collaborators, tracking seabirds throughout the Atlantic Ocean and we are on the trail of species which may have been overlooked and are unknown to science in the South Atlantic. The results of all these projects are used by conservation agencies, planners and government to ensure adequate protection and a brighter future for the marine environment.
