《2010年澳大利亚鸟类行动计划》是每十年开始时制定的一系列行动计划中的第三个。这本书分析了国际自然保护联盟(IUCN)对澳大利亚所有鸟类物种和亚种的现状,包括那些近海地区的鸟类。每一种鸟的大小、数量和分布趋势都已根据IUCN红色名录标准的最新版本进行了分析,以确定它们的灭绝风险。这本书还提供了所有那些灭绝或可能灭绝的物种和亚种的说明。这一结果是迄今为止对澳大利亚鸟类状况最权威的描述。在这个完全修订的版本中,每个描述不仅涵盖了2010年的状况,而且根据目前的知识,分类修订和IUCN标准的变化,对1990年和2000年的状况进行了回顾性评估,然后解释了为什么一些分类群的状况在过去二十年中发生了变化。根据澳大利亚鸟类协会、其成员及其在许多政府部门的合作伙伴的记录,专门为行动计划制作了地图。这不是一本关于失败的书。它呼吁我们采取行动,保护我们所继承的非凡的生物多样性,并将遗产传给我们的子孙后代。2012年惠特利动物资源奖表彰。
The Action Plan for Australian Birds 2010 is the third in a series of action plans that have been produced at the start of each decade. The book analyses the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) status of all the species and subspecies of Australia's birds, including those of the offshore territories. For each bird the size and trend in their population and distribution has been analysed using the latest iteration of IUCN Red List Criteria to determine their risk of extinction. The book also provides an account of all those species and subspecies that are or are likely to be extinct. The result is the most authoritative account yet of the status of Australia's birds. In this completely revised edition each account covers not only the 2010 status but provides a retrospective assessment of the status in 1990 and 2000 based on current knowledge, taxonomic revisions and changes to the IUCN criteria, and then reasons why the status of some taxa has changed over the last two decades. Maps have been created specifically for the Action Plan based on vetted data drawn from the records of Birds Australia, its members and its partners in many government departments. This is not a book of lost causes. It is a call for action to keep the extraordinary biodiversity we have inherited and pass the legacy to our children. 2012 Whitley Award Commendation for Zoological Resource.
