dc.description.abstractAtlas mapping of breeding birds in Gediz Delta Ramsar Site on the western coast of Turkey was performed in 2002. The study area of 305 kin 2 was divided into 305 1x1 kin square UTM grids. Breeding evidence was obtained for 92 species in 291 UTM squares; 47 were classified as confirmed breeding, 22 as probable breeding, and 23 as possible breeding. Among the breeding species, three were European species of global conservation concern (Falco naumanni, Pelecanus crispus, Emberiza cineracea), 12 were species with a concentrated population and with unfavourable conservation status in Europe, and 34 were species with their population not concentrated in Europe but with unfavourable conservation status in the region. Among those with a threatened status, 7 species were vulnerable, 4 were rare, 2 were localised, 18 were declining, and 18 were depleted species. During the study, various threats were identified in 173 UTM squares out of 291 (59.5%). Among these, the most frequently observed were pollution observed in 30% of the squares, overgrazing in 22% and illegal hunting in 22%.en_US

dc.description.sponsorshipAll atlas data was collected by the authors and by members of Ege University Birdwatching Club - EKGT (Okan BILGE, Soner BEKIR, Zeynep ARSAN, Bulent OZTURK, Onder CIRIK, Alpay TIRIL, Handan BILGE, Muruvvet GUMUS) and by birdwatchers coming from Izmir (Uygar OZESMI, Engin GEM, Zeren GURKAN, Franzisca ARICI, Burcu ARIK, Derya CEFER). We wish to thank all of them for making this atlas project possible. We would also like to show our appreciation to the staff of the Nature Conservation and Natural Parks in Izmir for providing permission and transport opportunities. Finally, we would like to acknowledge UNDP/GEF Turkey and the Body of Environmental Engineers in Izmir for providing financial support for the Gediz Delta Breeding Atlas Project.en_US
