JV Research and Monitoring Priorities

Research and monitoring are critical to measure population trends and management results, fill information gaps, and to improve management decisions. Monitoring and research objectives were established and prioritized in each of the JV bird-group strategies. These objectives are intended to guide JV partners in designing the highest priority research and monitoring projects to meet JV shared objectives.
