Estimating little auk (Alle alle) breeding density and chick-feeding rate using video surveillance

Estimating little auk (Alle alle) breeding density and chick-feeding rate using video surveillance

High Arctic ecosystems are under change and need to be monitored. We studied little auks (Alle alle), the most abundant seabird in the North Atlantic, in their main breeding area in the North Water Polynya region of High-Arctic north-west Greenland. We developed a method for estimating breeding dens...
