National and regional trends
Production of trends is currently limited by lack of geographic coverage and survey effort information. Provisional trends in breeding numbers and breeding productivity have been produced for a number of study areas across Scotland. A priority for the SRMS is to work with SRMS contributors to (i) obtain information on study area boundaries and coverage and (ii) assess representatives of coverage through matching information from Bird Atlas 2007-11 data with the aim of producing both national and regional trends in the future.
