This book was produced by the Zoological Society of London and the University of Cambridge with two aims: to assess seabirds' vulnerability to climate change in the North-East Atlantic, and to identify potential conservation actions that could reduce this vulnerability.
Seabirds in the North-East Atlantic collates information from the scientific literature, non-governmental organisations' reports, conservation practitioner input and online databases into a single volume, and provides a reference manual to assist conservation planning. It is intended to be used by anyone who wishes to identify climate change threats to seabirds; to compare threats between different areas of the North-East Atlantic; to start a quantitative climate change vulnerability assessment for a local population; or to review options for conservation action in response to climate change.
