Coastal ecosystems provide the food resources that sustain millions of migratory waterbirds along the East Atlantic Flyway. Tiny organisms such as worms and shellfish fuel these remarkable journeys, but changes in food availability can have significant impacts on bird survival and populations. Monitoring local food abundance is therefore essential for understanding ecological change and informing effective conservation and site management.
Join this one-hour CREAF webinar to learn about practical monitoring approaches and why they matter in a changing world.
Catarina Santos Ramos, PhD student at CESAM – Centre for Environmental and Marine Studies, University of Aveiro, and the BirdEyes Centre for Global Ecological Change, University of Groningen, and Allert Bijleveld, Senior Scientist at the Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research (NIOZ), will present their work, followed by a short question-and-answer session.
Date: Wednesday 8 July 16:00-17:00 CEST (14:00-15:00 UTC)
Language: English with simultaneous French interpretation.
