The atlas and registry will (1) address information gaps relative to seabirds in this region, one of the most heavily developed in terms of infrastructure but least monitored with respect to seabirds, (2) directly address a primary need identified by the GoMAMN Seabird Taxa Group in the recently released Guidelines (Chapter 6), and (3) complement recent efforts to develop similar products along the U.S. Atlantic coast. Please refer to the Final signed IAA and associated SOW for additional details.
