About the report
The scientific monitoring study on seabirds and shorebirds forms part of Study 6: Shoreline Ecological Ground Surveys under the Montara environmental monitoring program. After an initial post-impact field survey, a monitoring program for seabirds, shorebirds and vegetation condition was implemented for Ashmore Reef, Cartier Reef and Browse Island. Surveys began in 2010 and were conducted twice a year—every April and November—for a period of five years.
