Spring migration of waterbirds in the Beaufort Sea, Amundsen Gulf and Lambert Channel polynya, 1993 / Stuart A. Alexander, Susan E. Westover, D. Lynne Dickson.: CW69-5/201E-PDF
"Each spring during migration, hundreds of thousands of birds stop temporarily in offshore areas of the Beaufort Sea to feed, rest, and court. In 1992 and 1993, the Northern Oil and Gas Action Program provided funding to study spring waterbird distributions in relation to oil development. The objectives of this study were to: to examine spring waterbird distributions in offshore areas of the Beaufort Sea, Amundsen Gulf, and Lambert Channel; and to assess the potential threats from oil exploration and development to spring migrants in the southern Beaufort Sea. We flew aerial surveys for birds in May and June, 1992 and 1993. This report presents results from 1993"--Executive summary, p. i.
