Potential Western Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve Network sites for shorebirds in Canada / R.I.G. Morrison ... [et al.].: CW69-5/227E-PDF
"The Western Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve Network (WHSRN) is an international conservation initiative designed to protect the key habitats and resources used by shorebirds throughout their migration ranges. Many species of shorebirds depend on a chain of critically important sites to complete their annual migrations, and for conservation to be successful, all the links in the chain need to be preserved. This report provides an updated inventory of potential WHSRN sites in non-Arctic areas of Canada. It summarizes information currently available on locations meeting criteria for inclusion in the Western Hemisphere Shorebird Reserve Network both for a wide range of shorebird species found on migration and for the endangered Piping Plover Charadrius melodus"--Abstract.
