Definition
- The Water bird conservation goals depend on how well they measure and evaluate population change, as a basis for setting policy, identifying management and research priorities, and evaluating management actions. The North American Water bird Conservation Plan calls for development of a set of standardized water bird monitoring methods to be developed for both population and habitat at multiple geographic and temporal scales. The Water bird Monitoring Partnerships mission is to develop a continental network of collaborators who agree to and implement comparable population monitoring techniques and contribute to a centrally managed water bird database.
