Birds of the Offshore Canadian Beaufort Sea: Database and Atlas
Existing data on bird sightings and surveys in the Canadian Beaufort Sea were found, assembled, reviewed, cleaned, and organized into a standardized database structure. Data were collected primarily during recent seismic surveys conducted by the oil and gas industry, and government research cruises....
