In 2011, KEFJ staff in cooperation with AMNWR and University of
Alaska Fairbanks began a three year intensive seabird study to
establish monitoring protocols for breeding seabirds in KEFJ and
adjacent areas of AMNWR. The goals of this study are to: Document
previously undetected seabird colonies by systematically surveying
the coastline within KEFJ. Determine the status (occupied or
unoccupied) and species composition of all seabird colonies
documented in surveys from 1976-2010. Produce GIS maps of the
locations of seabird colonies in KEFJ and adjacent AMNWR islands.
Develop statistically valid protocols for monitoring long term
presence and abundance of colony nesting seabirds within KEFJ and
adjacent AMNWR islands. This report presents a summary of data
gathered in 2011 with preliminary comparisons to seabird surveys
from previous years.
