Objective
THE BASIC AIM OF THE PROPOSED PROGRAMME IS THE ANALYSIS AND COMPILATION, THROUGH COMPUTER USE, OF ALL EXISTING IN THE HRS RINGING AND RECOVERY DATA AS WELL AS OF DATA TO BE COLLECTED DURING THE FIRST YEAR OF THE PROGRAMME. THE DATA MANIPULATIO WILL BE ORIENTED:
- TO YIELD CONCLUSIONS ON THE COMPONENTS OF THE MIGRATORY PATTERN OF VARIOUS BIRD SPECIES PASSING OVER GREECE, EMPHAZING TO THE RARE AND ENDANGERED ONES IN THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY.
- TO FORM APPROPRIATE PROTECTIVE MANAGEMENT PROPOSALS BASED UPON THE RESULTS OF THE RESEARCH AND TO SUBMIT THEM TO THE RELATIVE GREEK AND EC AUTHORITIES.
WITHIN THE TWO YEARS OF THE OPERATION OF THE HELLENIC RINGING SCHEME (HRS) A CONSIDERABLE NUMBER (MORE OR LESS 900) OF OLDER RINGING RECOVERIES, IN GREECE, OF BIRDS RINGED BY FOREIGN RINGING SCHEMES HAS BEEN COLLECTED. THESE RECOVERIES ARE CONCERNED WITH TOTALLY 100 BIRD SPECIES, FOR SOME OF WHICH THE EXISTING DATA ARE ADEQUATE FOR DRAWING CONCLUSIONS ON THEIR BASIC MIGRATORY TRENDS.
THE UE OF COMPUTER TO PROCESSING SUCH KIND OF INFORMATION PRE-ASSUMES THAT A COMPUTER OF ADEQUATE CAPACITY WOULD BE APPROPRIATELY PROGRAMMED AND THAT THE RINGING-RECOVERY DATA WILL BE FILLED IN IT.
THE PRIMARY, THUS, PROCEDURES OF THE PROPOSED PROJECT INCLUDE:
- COMPUTER TRAINING OF THE SCIENTIFIC RESPONSIBLE OF THE PROJECT, IE TRAINING ON THE USE OF THE COMPUTER AND ON THE MANIPULATION OF DATA THROUGH THE RELATIVE COMPUTING PROGRAMME. TRAINING WILL INVOLVE A VISIT OF THE SCIENTIFIC RESPONSIBLE TO A FOREIGN RINGING CENTRE.
- COMPUTER PROGRAMMING. THIS WILL BE CARRIED OUT IN COOPERATION WITH OTHER NATIONAL SCHEMES (BTO, ETC...) AND WITH THE EURING DATA BANK. HAVING THE COMPUTER PROGRAMMED, THE RELATIVE DATA WILL BE FILED IN THE COMPUTER.
BY THE COMMENCEMENT OF THE PROJECT AND IN PARALLEL WITH THE COMPUTINING PROCESS, AN ORGANIZED SURVEY TO COLLECT RINGING RECOVERIES FROM VARIOUS SOURCES WILL BE CARRIED OUT. THE SURVEY WILL BE PURSUED THROUGH:
- DESIGN, PRODUCTION AND DISTRIBUTION OF A POSTER PROVIDING INFORMATION ON BIRD RINGING AND ITS UTILITY AND STIMULATING POTENTIAL FINDERS OF RECOVERIES TO REPORT THEM TO THE HRS.
- PUBLICATIONS OF RELATIVE ARTICLES TO NEWSPAPERS AND MAGAZINES.
- RADIO AND TV PROGRAMMES.
SPECIAL RINGING FIELD WORK WILL TAKE PLACE IN SELECTED IMPROTANT BIRD AREAS NEEDING IMMEDIATE PROTECTION AS OF BEING UNDER SERIOUS THREAT. THE STUDY WILL BE BASED ON RINGING MOSTLY. ANNEX 1 BIRD SPECIES AND WILL BE ORIENTED TO COLLECT DATA SUPPROTING THE IMPORTANCE AND PROTECTION OF SUCH AREAS.
IN THIS RESPECT, A FIRST SUCH STUDY WILL BE CARIIED OUT IN ALIKI KITROUS WETLAND, AND IT WILL BE ESPECIALLY PLANNED IN A WAY TO SERVE IN FUTURE AS PILOT STUDY FOR RELATIVE PURPOSES.
SUCH A FIELD WORK WILL TAKE PLACE IN CERTAIN PERIODS (BREEDING SEASONS) OF 1988-1989. THE RESULTS OF, AT LEAST, THE FIELD WORK OF 1988 WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE FINAL REPORT.
DATA PROCESSING THROUGH THE COMPUTING PROGRAMME WILL SYSTEMATICALLY PERFORMED DURING THE SECOND YEAR OF THE PROPOSED PROJECT. IT WILL MAILNLY AIM TO INVESTIGATE MIGRATORY TRENDS AND PATHWAYS OF VARIOUS BIRD SPECIES PASSING FROM GREECE, AS WELL AS TO DETECT THEIR SUMMERING AND WINTERING DESTINATIONS. RECOVERY MAPS LIKE THAT OF THE APPENDIX 1 OF THE PRESENT PROPOSAL WILL BE EASILY AND QUICKLY COMPILED THROUGH THE COMPUTING PROGRAMME, FOR MOST OF THE SPECIES FOR WHICH ADEQUATE NUMBER OF RECOVERIES EXIST.
