Shorebird Dependence on Arctic Littoral Habitats
This research, now in its sixth year, has focused on seasonal patterns of habitat use by arctic tundra breeding shorebirds, attempting to determine the dependence of different species on resources which may be affected by proposed oil development on the outer continental shelf of Alaska.
