Finders information Netherlands - 2020 : SNS Fulmar study report - Finders information_NL_7thBatch2020

Abstract

This document is an illustrated report for the surveyors in the monitoring program of plastics particles in stomachs of beached northern fulmars (Fulmarus glacialis). It contains short information and photos of stomach contents of individual birds. In 2020 only eighteen corpses could be recovered, three of which contained no stomach. Occasional years of lower sample sizes are not a problem for the monitoring program although larger samples will increase potential for statistical analyses.
