Aerial surveys of Harbour Seals in the Wadden Sea in 2009: Growth of the harbour seal population slowing down?
In accordance with the Trilateral Seal Management Plan, the three Wadden Sea countries Denmark, Germany and the Netherlands perform harbour seal counts annually. These are coordinated and synchronised between the three countries. Five aerial counts are conducted nearly simultaneously every year at l...
