Distribution of seabirds at sea in the Gulf of Carpentaria, Australia (1990-1991) ...
The distribution and abundance of seabirds was documented at sea in the Gulf of Carpentaria in December 1990 and November 1991. Of the 17 species recorded, only the crested tern, least frigatebird, brown booby and streaked shearwater were widespread. The first three species were seen mainly in coast...
