Assessing the effectiveness of foraging radius models for seabird distributions using biotelemetry and survey data

The design and funding for aerial surveys were provided by Ireland's Dept of Communication, Climate Action and Environment and the Dept of Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht, under the ObSERVE Programme established in 2014. We are grateful for the support and assistance of both Depts in undertaking this work. Funding for development of projected distributions was provided by the Petroleum Infrastructure Program (IS013/08), and funding for telemetry work was provided by the Zoological Society of London (Good gifts programme), Petroleum Infrastructure Programme (IS013/08) and the Irish Research Council (GOIPD/2015/81) Ireland's Dept of Agriculture, Fisheries and the Marine.
