FAME and STAR seabird tracking - European shag (Phalacrocorax aristotelis) (at-sea distributions, Scotland only)

Marine Scotland Information NMPi icon

UK-level utilisation distributions (UD) for European Shag. UDs are provided in a sequence of 5% contours for each species starting at the 5% utilisation distribution and ending at the 95% utilisation distributions. Within the ecological literature the 95% UD is often used to define the 95% home range of a species and the 50% UD is used to define the 50% core range of a species.
