        <gco:CharacterString>Abundance (birds/km2) of least auklets in four regions (see map) of the eastern Chukchi Sea, 1975-1981 and 2007-2012, based on at-sea surveys (archived in the North Pacific Pelagic Seabird Database).

STATE OF THE ARCTIC MARINE BIODIVERSITY REPORT - &lt;a href="https://arcticbiodiversity.is/findings/seabirds" target="_blank"&gt;Chapter 3&lt;/a&gt; - Page 138 - Box fig. 3.5.1

The shapefile outlines 4 regions of the eastern Chukchi Sea that were surveyed for seabirds during the open-water seasons of 1976-2012. We compared the density of seabirds in these regions among two time periods (1975-1981 and 2008-2012) to assess changes in seabird abundance over the past 4 decades. We also include a figure showing abundance of Least Auklets 1975-2012. Data are from the North Pacific Pelagic Seabird Database, maintained by the USGS (http://alaska.usgs.gov/science/biology/nppsd/index.php).</gco:CharacterString>
