Baie de Seine
Baie de Seine
Bird species included in model
Dunlin (Calidris alpina), Eurasian curlew (Numenius arquata), Eurasian oystercatcher (Haematopus ostralegus)
Environmental issues simulated
Port development. Mitigation for habitat area and habitat availability time.
Recommendations from modelling
Port development can reduce shorebird survival, but mitigatation by reducing disturbance and habitat creation can offset this.
