Project Year and Number: 2000: 00516-BAA

Other Fiscal Years and Numbers for this Project: None

Principal Investigator (PI): Bob Day (ABR; Inc.; Environmental Research and Services)

Managing Agency: NOAA

Assisting Personnel: Debbie Nigro, Alexander Prichard

Research Location: Prince William Sound

Restoration Category: Research

Injured Resources Addressed: Kittlitz's Murrelets, Marbled Murrelets

Abstract: This project will analyze an existing data set and publish a paper on the comparative at-sea habitat use by Kittlitz's and marbled murrelets. Both species were classified as injured by the oil spill. At this time, nothing is known about at-sea ecological segregation and overlap in habitat use. An existing data set for both species will be ideal for examining these issues.
