The Seabird Group: Population and breeding dynamics of European Shags

Congratulations to Martin Huebeck, SOTEAG’s resident seabird monitoring officer, who has recently published an article in the journal Seabird.

Huebeck, M., Mellor, R.M., Gear, S., and Miles, W.T.S.  2015.  Population and breeding dynamics of European Shags Phalacrocorax aristotelis at three major colonies in Shetland, 2001-2015.  Seabird, 28: 55-77.

The paper can be accessed from Seabird the annual journal from the Seabird Group.  The journal contains papers and short communications on seabird biology, conservation, identification, and status.

The European Shag has recently been added to the UK Red list due to a severe decline in population numbers and continued monitoring is important to help protect this species.
