Book Description
"Counts of water birds and shorebirds were made in the province of Matanzas in Cuba during 14-21 February 1990. Forty-three species and at least 2246 individuals were recorded. The relatively few individuals seen suggest that, at least in February, narrow shores, which are subject to small tidal fluctuations, and drying inland conditions, contribute to unfavourable habitat for shorebirds and water birds. Extensive surveys of coastal and wetland habitats at different times of the year are needed to identify the archipelago's critical staging, wintering and breeding sites"--Abstract.

Coastal Marine Ecosystems of Latin America
Author: U. Seeliger
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3540672281
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 394
Book Description
Coastal and marine ecosystems, some severely degraded, other still pristine, control rich resources of inshore environments and coastal seas of Latin America's Pacific and Atlantic margins. Conflicts between the needs of the region's nations and diminishing revenues and environmental quality have induced awareness of coastal ecological problems and motivated financial support for restoration and management. The volume provides a competent review on the structure, processes and function of 22 important Latin American coastal marine ecosystems. Each contribution describes the environmental settings, biotic components and structure of the system, considers trophic processes and energy flow, evaluates the modifying influence of natural and human perturbations, and suggests management needs. Although the focus of the book is on basic ecological research, the results have application for coastal managers.
