The importance of seabirds as part of the marine ecosystem has only recently been recognized. In order to understand the dynamics of polar marine ecosystems, a focus on the interaction between the physical environment and the major biological components, including such apex predators as marine mammals and seabirds, is required. This workshop will focus on Southern Ocean seabird species, but will include arctic and temperate species. The development of new instrumentation and sampling techniques for studying seabirds during the last decade has given valuable insights into their physiology, population biology and community ecology. As new approaches have developed, concern has been raised about the introduction of bias into the data being obtained. This workshop will address the topic of research protocols used in seabird studies with the aim of understanding the effects on the population studied and the data collected.

海鸟作为海洋生态系统的一部分， 最近才被承认。为了解 极地海洋生态系统的动态，重点是相互作用 物理环境和主要生物之间的关系 组成部分，包括海洋哺乳动物等顶级掠食者， 海鸟，这是必须的。本次研讨会将重点关注南大洋 海鸟物种，但将包括北极和温带物种。 新仪器和取样技术的发展 在过去的十年里，研究海鸟的工作给了我们宝贵的 深入了解它们的生理学、种群生物学和群落 生态随着新方法的发展， 提出了关于引入偏见的数据， 得到了本次研讨会将讨论研究的主题 海鸟研究中使用的协议，目的是了解 对研究人群的影响和收集的数据。
