Fair Isle Seabird Studies (2002) This report presents the results of seabird monitoring on Fair Isle in 2000, the 15th season of work. Some of the data collected in previous years have been re-analysed and therefore some of the results for the years 1986-99 published in this report may differ slightly from those in previous years - JNCC report 332
Fair Isle seabird studies 1998 Seabirds are one of the more important components of this environment and the UK has internationally important populations of several species. The JNCC's Seabird Monitoring Programme has been designed to assess population changes and breeding success of selected species of seabirds at a range of colonies. In addition, selected 'key site' colonies have been targeted for more detailed monitoring of breeding performance, annual survival rates and feeding ecology. These sites are geographically spread in order to give as full a coverage as possible of British waters. Fair Isle is a very suitable site in northern Britain, situated between the two important archipelagos of Orkney and Shetland - JNCC Report
