Tender description
Evidence for Offshore Wind;1). Seabird foraging and avian flu and 2). Auk foraging ecology in the non-breeding season Lot 2: Evidence for Offshore Wind; Foraging ecology of guillemots and razorbills in the non-breeding season to understand consequences of potential displacement This project, “Evidence for Offshore Wind; Foraging ecology of guillemots and razorbills in the non-breeding season to understand consequences of potential displacement”, will tag guillemots and razorbills with light-based geolocators (GLS) and time depth recorder (TDR) tags to gather data on foraging distribution and behaviour, during the post-breeding dispersal (July-October) and non-breeding (November-March) seasons. Stable isotope analysis of feathers taken during tagging at the breeding colony will be used in combination with foraging behaviour data to improve understanding of guillemot and razorbill diet outside of the breeding season. This improved understanding will be used to better understand the potential effects of displacement from offshore wind farms during these seasons.
